Start by dicing shallots and garlic.

Use only the white parts of the green onions for cooking, saving the greens for garnish.

Finely chop Rosemary, basil, parsley, oregano, and thyme.

Heat a generous amount of olive oil and 2 lbs of butter in an enamel pot until foamy.

Add shallots and garlic to the pot, followed by the chopped green onions and herbs.

Stir the mixture to sauté the aromatics until softened and golden brown.

Prepare beer, Worcestershire sauce, and lemons for the sauce.

Juice the lemons and cut the ends off to slice into thin rounds, leaving the seeds in.

Add beer, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and sliced lemons to the pot once the aromatics are ready.

Season the mixture with Crystal hot sauce, pepper, and salt.

Bring the sauce to a simmer before adding the shrimp.

Cook the shrimp in the sauce until they turn pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.

While the shrimp are cooking, toast a loaf of crusty French bread in a skillet.

Once the shrimp are cooked, serve immediately with the toasted bread for dipping.
