Recipe instructions
- To prepare the shrimp, with a very sharp paring knife, split each shrimp down the back through the shell.
- Leave the legs intact.
- Open the shrimp (like butterflies) and flatten them; the legs will be on the bottom side.
- Arrange the split shrimp in a single layer on a sheet pan.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready.
- Place the garlic in a small saucepot with enough water to cover them.
- Bring the water to a boil, and then lower to a simmer until the garlic cloves are soft (about 20 minutes).
- Drain the water and refresh the garlic cloves with cold water.
- Allow to cool.
- Mince the cooked garlic.
- Just before broiling the shrimp, combine the minced garlic with the minced serrano chiles, minced cilantro, lime juice and hot melted butter.
- Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator.
- Brush the shrimp with the melted garlic/cilantro butter.
- Place the shrimp under a hot broiler and cook just until the shrimp are done (about 5 minutes depending on the broiler and height of the rack).
- Transfer the shrimp to a platter and drizzle any remaining garlic butter over the shrimp.
- Serve with lots of paper napkins and an empty bowl for the shells.
