Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup flour
salt and pepper
1 1/2 lbs jumbo shrimp
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 teaspoon corn oil or 1 teaspoon canola oil

Tips:

  • Use a good quality Pernod: Pernod is a type of anise-flavored liqueur. It's important to use a good quality Pernod, as it will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to hold the shrimp for a short period of time, keep it warm in a covered dish.
