Steps:
- Combine garlic, shallots, mustard, wine, lemon juice, olive oil and basil in a bowl. Stir to blend. Add shrimp and stir to coat. Let stand until ready to cook.
- When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor or indoor grill to high, or preheat a broiler to high.
- Remove shrimp from marinade and pour marinade into a small saucepan. Arrange shrimp 6 to a skewer, pushing the skewer through the tail section, then the head section, so shrimp will lie flat on grill or under broiler (see note). Arrange them barely touching and without crowding.
- Place skewers on grill or on rack under broiler, about 6 inches from source of heat, and cook about 3 minutes or until shrimp can be lifted from grill or rack without sticking. Turn skewers and cook about 2 minutes longer.
- Meanwhile, bring marinade to a boil and simmer about 2 minutes.
- Remove shrimp from skewers and arrange them symmetrically on 4 plates. Spoon the sauce over the shrimp and serve.
