Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs extra-large shrimp (21-25 per lb, shells on or off, your choice )
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp vegetable oil
6 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into 6 pieces
2 tsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp tomato paste
1 tsp minced fresh rosemary
1 tsp minced fresh thyme
1/2 tsp dried oregano
3 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup bottled clam juice
1/2 cup beer
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 large loaf french bread

Directions:

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and cayenne.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Cook half of shrimp, without moving, until spotty brown on one side, about 1 minute; transfer to large plate.
Repeat with remaining oil and shrimp.
Make sauce in empty skillet. Melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add flour, tomato paste, rosemary, thyme, oregano, and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in clam juice, beer, and Worcestershire, scraping up any browned bits, and bring to boil.
Return shrimp and accumulated juices to skillet.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes.
Off heat, stir in remaining butter until incorporated. Serve with French bread.
