Directions
Peel shrimp, leaving on tails. Heat the butter, oil and garlic in a broiler proof pan.
Stir in the parsley, cayenne, and lemon juice.
Add the shrimp, tossing to coat.
Place under the broiler 6 inches from heat, and broil until done, about 5 minutes.
Check half way through the cooking time and turn shrimp as necessary.
Serve with crusty bread for dipping in the sauce.
