Ingredients:  
5-6 Jumbo shrimp - "filet-ed" down the spine -- I dont know the correct culinary term for this, but thats what we called it -- and Im sure you know it, but it would cause the shrimp to butterfly while cooking, and it was very easy to do since the shrimp were so big;

sprig or 2 of parsley

salt and pepper

bed of wild rice on the side

vermouth (i think) - for flambeeing if desired
