Directions
  1. 1
    Heat 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in a large skillet over high heat.
  2. 2
    Once the butter is hot and almost melted, add the minced green onion, salt, garlic, cayenne pepper, white pepper, black pepper, basil, thyme, and oregano.
  3. 3
    Stir the aromatics and spices well to coat the butter and release their fragrance.
  4. 4
    Add the shrimp to the skillet and sauté until they turn pink, about 1 minute. Shake the pan occasionally instead of stirring to ensure even cooking.
  5. 5
    Add the sliced mushrooms and pour in the fish stock and clam broth.
  6. 6
    Reduce heat slightly and add the remaining 1/2 cup of butter in chunks.
  7. 7
    Continue to shake the skillet gently, allowing the butter to emulsify with the stocks and juices until the sauce becomes creamy and smooth.
  8. 8
    Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
