Ingredients

• 1 loaf French baguette
• 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 12 pieces Large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the baguette diagonally into 12 thin slices and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 3

Brush the top of each baguette slice with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden and crisp. Remove from oven and set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 6

Season the shrimp with salt and black pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and are fully cooked.

Step 7

Add the lemon juice and chopped parsley to the skillet, tossing the shrimp to coat evenly in the buttery garlic sauce. Remove from heat.

Step 8

Top each toasted baguette slice with one shrimp, then drizzle a small amount of the garlic butter sauce over each.

Step 9

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of each crostini.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Garlic Shrimp Crostini!
