Preparation

Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together the wine, tomato sauce, chervil, lemon juice, mustard, oregano, salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a skillet and cook the minced garlic over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the tomato-sauce mixture and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Remove from heat and set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Stir in chopped parsley.
Step 4
Place the shrimp in a single layer in a nonmetal baking dish. Pour the sauce over the shrimp and marinate, covered, for 3 hours at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator.
Step 5
Preheat the broiler. Broil the shrimps about 6 inches from the heat for 10 minutes or until cooked through, turning once.
