Directions
- Prep the Shrimp: In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat.
- Prepare the Bread: Slice the baguette lengthwise and place under the broiler for 2–3 minutes until lightly toasted. This gives the bread a crispy base that holds up under the cheesy topping.
- Load It Up: Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the toasted bread if using. Arrange the cooked shrimp evenly over the bread, then sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan on top. Finish with chopped parsley for a fresh, flavorful touch.
- Broil to Perfection: Place the loaded bread under the broiler for 4–5 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
- Slice & Serve: Let the bread cool for a minute, then cut into pieces and serve hot. Perfect for parties, quick dinners, or a fun snack anytime.
