This is from The Good Home Cookbook with a few of my personal modifications. Fresh parsley was originally called for but I used green onion instead; feel free to use either one.

CHICAGO'S SHRIMP DEJONGHE
Though I can no longer enjoy this wonderful dish since suddenly becoming deathly allergic to crustacians at age 19, I do still enjoy making it for company! It's a fairly simple dish consisting of whole peeled shrimp cooked in individual serving dishes swimming in garlic butter and topped with fine bread crumbs and then broiled....

Steps:
- 1. Cook shrimp in a 4-quart pot of boiling salted water* until just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain shrimp in a colander, then immediately transfer to a large bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Preheat oven to 350°F. Mash garlic to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt using a mortar and pestle (or mince and mash garlic with salt using a large knife), then stir together with fresh and dried herbs, shallot, onion, 1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) butter, 1 cup bread crumbs, nutmeg, mace, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Melt remaining 1/2 stick butter and stir together with remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to make topping. Arrange shrimp in 1 layer (slightly overlapping if necessary) in a buttered 3-quart flameproof gratin dish or other wide shallow ceramic baking dish. Cover with herbed breadcrumb mixture, then sprinkle with topping. Bake in upper third of oven until golden, about 15 minutes. Turn on broiler and broil until crumbs are golden brown, about 2 minutes. * When salting water for cooking, use 1 tablespoon for every 4 quarts water. **This can also be made in 8 small baking ramekins for appetizers, or 4 larger individual baking dishes for main dish-sized. ***Lastly, I don't recall my mom using a whole lot of fresh herbs when making this herself, especially during the winter! So she had to have either subbed dried herbs for some of them, or used italian seasoned breadcrumbs instead. So that's an option for you, too. All I remember was it was PURE HEAVEN... do hope you try it! Enjoy for me!! :D (Photo from bing images)

SHRIMP DE JONGHE
A dish my mother made for special occasions. According to some sources, shrimp de jonghe was invented at the turn of the 20th century by the De Jonghe brothers, Belgian immigrants and owners of DeJonghe's Hotel and Restaurant in Chicago. This garlicky, herbed casserole is one of the earliest Windy City specialties. This dish can be served as an appetizer or main course.

SHRIMP DE JONGHE (DEREK'S WAY)
I got the recipe from a cookbook years ago (I think it was a Betty Crocker Cookbook) and made several changes over time. This is how I make it today after years of perfecting the recipe.

Steps:
- Peel and slice the garlic cloves. Melt half the butter in a large skillet. Add the shrimp and the garlic. Cook the shrimp until they start to turn pink on both sides. Don't worry if they're not completely cooked, they're going in the oven later. Remove the shrimp to about 6 or 8 small individual casserole dishes. Try to leave the garlic and butter in the pan.
- Add the rest of the butter to the pan you just cooked the shrimp in, and continue cooking until the butter is clarified and the garlic is browned.
- Strain the clarified garlic butter into a bowl or I use a 2 cup measuring cup. It makes it easy to pour.
- Mix 1/4 cup of the clarified butter with the bread crumbs and set aside.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the rest of the clarified butter. Stir and pour an even ammount into each shrimp dish. I try to stir as I pour to make sure every dish gets the same ammount of everything.
- Flake bread crumbs over shrimp. At this point they can be refrigerated and baked later.
- Bake 10-12 minutes at 400°F.
- Bread crumbs should be browned on top.

This is an excellent appetizer or you can toss it with linguine and make it a meal. Taste great with a nice glass of Chardonnay. This was our New Years Eve appetizer for years, everyoine loved it. Put more garlic or less, it should be to your taste.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. Shrimp de Jonghe is a quick-cooking dish, so you don't want to be scrambling to find things while you're cooking.
- Use Fresh Shrimp: Fresh shrimp is essential for this dish. If you can't find fresh shrimp, you can use frozen shrimp, but make sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
- Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Use a Good Quality White Wine: The white wine you use in this dish will make a big difference in the flavor. Use a dry white wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
- Serve Immediately: Shrimp de Jonghe is best served immediately after it is cooked. The shrimp will start to lose its flavor if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Shrimp de Jonghe is a delicious, elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be made with a variety of different ingredients, so you can customize it to your own taste. Whether you are serving it for a dinner party or a romantic meal for two, Shrimp de Jonghe is sure to impress.
