Lightly grease an 11 x 7-inch baking dish (or one that will hold all ingredients).
In a saucepan place the butter with mustard, lemon juice, chopped garlic, wine (if using) Cajun seasoning, black pepper and parsley; bring JUST to a simmer stirring with a wooden spoon or until the butter has melted (do not brown the butter) remove from heat.
Place the shrimp into the baking dish then pour the butter mixture over the shrimp.
