1 1/2 pounds jumbo shrimp
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 cloves garlic (large), very finely chopped
6 anchovy fillets, chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

1 Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail sections intact. With a small knife, slit the shrimp lengthwise along the back, cutting almost all the way through to the other side. Remove the dark vein and open the shrimp flat like a book. Rinse the shrimp and pat dry. 2 Place a barbecue grill or broiler rack about 5 inches away from the heat source. Preheat the grill or broiler. In a large broiler-safe skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. When the butter foam subsides, add the parsley, garlic, and anchovies and cook, stirring 1 minute. Add the wine and lemon juice and cook 1 minute more. 3 Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the shrimp cut-sides down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon some of the sauce over the shrimp. 4 Run the pan under the broiler and cook about 3 minutes or until the shrimp are just opaque.
