Prepare shrimp – your choice

- 5 lbs shrimp
Directions:
- In large pan melt butter. Then add the rest of the ingredients except for the shrimp.

Notes:
This is the second version of the recipe. Once the sauce is made you can cool it down and store in in an air tight container and use it later.
I know that we prepared this dish last night and tonight I added some of the sauce to a pan, added my completely pealed shrimp and topped it off with some cooked pasta, it was OSoo Good.
