  • I love serving saucy things over toast. And, when that saucy thing is creamy garlic shrimp, and the toast it’s over has been pan-fried in butter, I really, really love it. This works as a special occasion appetizer, or a quick and easy weeknight meal. Enjoy!

    My wife & I used to frequent this little place on the beach after a day of kayaking around the bay. It was kind of a dive bar with a few "upscale" dishes on the menu. One of those was our absolute favorite, and it was very similar to this. They used not only shrimp, but scallops, clams, mussels & crab. The perfectly toasted, buttery bread was served on the side, but we'd always spoon the seafood & sauce on top of the bread. Sofa king good!
    Sadly, that place got wiped out by the ocean a few years ago. :(

    I started making a version of this a couple months ago more or less by accident. I had the ingredients, and my daughter came over to visit. I really didn't have any other ingredients to cook except for a nice loaf of sourdough bread and some shrimp. The only thing I did differently was I also added a small pinch of generic cajun spice to the shrimp, and I put thin slices of goat cheese on the bread before I put the shrimp on. I was going to serve it with a small side salad, but we never got to the salad, because we had to eat it right away. What a strange coincidence. So far I have only made it twice. After the first time, you know I had to make it again.

    This is a much fancier version but I used to eat Shrimp Toast all the time at a family owned Chinese restaurant near my house. It is so effin good. It's crunchy, oily, creamy with a meat bite. I'll never forget it. They closed down and no restaurant I've been to since has it and if they do it's not made the same. The version here is much creamier.
