1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon each toasted and crushed fennel seeds and coriander seeds
1/2 teaspoon each crushed black pepper and red pepper flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

1
Preheat the oven to 425F (on the convection setting, if possible).
2
Combine the marinade ingredients in a large bowl.
3
Add the shrimp and use a rubber spatula (or your hands) to toss and coat the shrimp thoroughly.
4
Allow the shrimp to marinate at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
5
To cook the shrimp, divide them evenly between two baking sheets and roast for about 10 minutes, until just cooked through (they will firm up and turn light pink).
6
Remove them from the pan, and strain and reserve any juices left in the pan.
7
If not much juice is left, deglaze the sheets with a little white wine; reserve the juice.
8
