Use a poaching method for cooking.

Cook the shrimp for about 2.5 to 3 minutes, depending on the cooking element used.

Add roasted red pepper and shallot to the butter for flavor.

Heat the mixture until it reaches the right temperature for poaching.

Monitor the shrimp as they cook; they should curl slightly but not become overly curled.

Check the shrimp for doneness; they should be between opaque and translucent.
