Cajun Shrimp 2

14 large unpeeled shrimp
6 Tablespoons of cold unsalted butter
1-1/2 teaspoons of ground black pepper
1-1/2 teaspoons of cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon of Creole seasoning
3 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of chopped of garlic
juice of one lemon
Hot French bread

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place the shrimp, 3 tablespoon of the butter, the seasonings, and garlic in a sauté' pan or oven proof skillet large enough to hold the shrimp in only one layer. Place shrimp in oven for about 2 minutes. Remove and turn the shrimp over and return for another 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp and now place on the stove on medium heat. Add the lemon juice and the remaining 3 tablespoon of butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Serve in abowl with the French bread for the dipping. I usually serve really cold beer or iced tea to cut the heat of the dish. It is the pepper that makes the heat so that can be varied depending on your own preferences.

If you live were Cajun or Creole seasonings are not available it can be made by putting together:

2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon ground pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2-1/2 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder

Blend all the ingredients in a bowl. Makes 2/3 of a cup. Can be stored in a sealed container.
