  1 1/2 lb Raw shrimp in shells
    1/2 c  Butter

  slender, almost needle-shaped chile with smooth, bright red skin and
  a very hot flavor.

  Preheat oven to 400 F. Shell and devein shrimp, leaving tails
  attached; rinse and drain well. Heat butter and oil in small skillet
  over medium heat until butter is melted and foamy. Add garlic,
  chilies, lime juice and salt. Cook and stir 1 minute. Remove from
  heat. Arrange shrimp in even layer in shallow 2-quart gratin pan or
  baking dish. Pour hot butter mixture over shrimp. Bake shrimp 10 to 12
  minutes until shrimp turn opaque, stirring once. Do not overcook or
  shrimp will be dry and tough. Garnish if desired.
