Vieux Carré Scampi
Total time: 30 minutes
This is based on one of a 'box' of recipes I got years ago. It's a bit heavy on the butter, which makes it ideal for serving over rice or pasta or Quinoa.
Ingredients:
- 12oz cleaned shrimp (prawns), 350gr, 12.4oz
- 1 tbs lemon juice, 15gr, .53oz
- 1 clove garlic, 3gr, .1oz
- 2 shallot, 45gr, 1.6oz
- 1 tbs dried parsley
- 2 tbs butter, 28.4gr, 1oz
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese, 60gr, 2.2oz Gruyère
Instructions:
- Divide shrimp into 2 buttered, shallow, individual baking dishes or 1 larger one, arranging nicely.
- Peel and finely chop shallots and garlic, divide and sprinkle over shrimp.
- Sprinkle parsley over shrimp.
- Drizzle with lemon juice, dot with butter and sprinkle the cheese over all.
- Bake at 375F (190C) for 15 - 20 minutes, until hot, bubbly and shrimp are done. Time varies depending on size of shrimp.
- Serve. I put the small dishes on a baking sheet for easier handling.
