Ingredients

8 slices of your favorite bread

½ cup softened butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon lemon juice

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon dried parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter with minced garlic until well blended.

  2. Garlic Bread Preparation: Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly on one side of each bread slice.

  3. Cook Shrimp: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat.

  4. Assemble Sandwiches: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place a slice of bread, garlic butter side down, on the skillet. Layer with shredded mozzarella cheese, cooked shrimp, and grated Parmesan. Top with another slice of bread, garlic butter side up.

  5. Grill Sandwich: Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side until golden brown. Carefully flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, until golden and the cheese is melted.

  6. Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let rest for a minute, then slice and serve. Sprinkle with dried parsley for added flavor and color.

Notes

  • Feel free to adjust the type of cheese based on preference. Mixing mozzarella with cheddar adds a sharp flavor.

  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.

  • If you’re short on time, use pre-cooked shrimp to speed up the cooking process.
