Delicious stuffed garlic bread with creamy shrimp filling, perfect for a comforting meal or party appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf crusty Italian bread
  • ¼ cup butter, melted
  • 1 pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Sauté the minced garlic in a skillet with a drizzle of olive oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Then, add the shrimp, seasoning them with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. Mix the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and the cooked shrimp mixture in a large bowl. Add the chopped parsley and mix well.
  4. Prepare the Italian bread by slicing it down the middle without cutting all the way through and hollowing out some of the inner crumb to create a pocket.
  5. Stuff the bread pocket generously with the shrimp cream cheese mixture.
  6. Brush the outside of the stuffed bread with the melted butter.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
  8. Cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.

Notes

Serve warm, great with marinara sauce for dipping. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
