INGREDIENTS
  • 1 lb. Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/2 white or yellow onion chopped
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup tomato chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 4 teaspoons garlic chopped
  • 4 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 2 teaspoon coarse black pepper
  • 1 teaspoons dried basil
  • 4 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 sprigs fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

 
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Saute onion in melted butter over medium low heat, about 4 minutes. Be careful to not burn or caramelize onions.
  2. Add garlic and stir, continue to saute for 1 minute.
  3. In separate bowl combine Worcestershire sauce, sugar, pepper, basil, cayenne, thyme, paprika, rosemary, and brown sugar. Stir to mix. Add mixture to saute pan, cook low 2 minutes until bubbling.
  4. Slowly add Chicken broth, stirring to mix thoroughly. Raise heat to low boil and reduce liquid by half -about 20 minutes. Stir frequently with wooden spoon to keep any solids from burning on bottom of pan.
  5. In separate pan, saute the shrimp in enough butter and garlic (powder or chopped) to coat until three-quarters cooked (about 3 minutes).
  6. Add shrimp and butter to the sauce mix in the first pan. Add olive oil, tomato, and parsley. Cook until done, about 2 minutes.

Serve over pasta (I recommend lemon-pepper linguine) or rice. Sprinkle with a few green onion tops, sliced thin. Caesar salad and hard Italian bread go excellent with this. Recommended wine: a robust Chianti.

(This is a low-salt recipe. For even lower sodium content, use low-salt Worcestershire and low-salt broth.)
