Broiled Butterflied Shrimp Recipe #353746
Somewhere, I got the idea that Shrimp Scampi is supposed to be broiled, yet most recipes I found sauteed. So I made this last night and my husband loved it.
20 min | 10 min prep
SERVES 6 , 6 portions
- 1 lb jumbo shrimp, thawed (if frozen)
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced thin
- 4 tablespoons butter
- salt
- cayenne pepper
- 1/8 cup Italian style breadcrumbs
- 1/8 cup panko
- 1/8 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/8 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Preheat broiler. Peel, devein, and butterfly shrimps. Arrange butterflied shrimp in a shallow baking dish in a single layer. Season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper.
- In a small skillet, melt the butter and saute garlic for 5 minutes or so. Do not allow to brown. Remove garlic. Pour about half evenly over shrimp.
- Sprinkle arranged shrimp with both types of bread crumbs. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Pour remainder of butter evenly over shrimp.
- Broil about 3 to 5 minutes until shrimp or bread crumbs begin to brown and shrimp are opaque. Turn shrimps over and broil another 3 to 5 minutes until done.
