Ingredients
- 2 lbs large shrimp, preferably shell off, (but it tastes great (though messy), shell-on also)
- 4 leeks, white and pale green parts, halved lengthwise, rinsed thoroughly, and sliced
- 1 large shallot, chopped
- 20 peeled baby carrots
- ½ stick sweet butter
- 1 t. dried thyme
- 2 t. Worcestershire sauce, preferably white,
- 1 t. Tabasco sauce
- ½ c. dry Vermouth + 2T, preferably Cinzano
- ¾ c. evaporated whole milk
- 4 T. fresh chopped chives
- Sea salt to taste
- Wondra to thicken
Directions
- Melt butter in a large saucepan with cover. Saute vegetables 5 minutes. Add thyme, ½ cup Vermouth, lower heat to simmer and cover. Cook until leeks are soft, and carrots tender crisp, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp, milk, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, and cook, covered, over low heat stirring occasionally, until shrimp are pink. Add 2 T. Vermouth, Wondra to thicken and sea salt to taste. Cook until sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes. Top with fresh chopped chives

I love anything that's leeky and vermouth-y. And half a stick of butter too boot. Looks wonderful. I was mystified by the white Worcestershire, but I see it's made with white wine. I gotta' get me some.
