Creamy Shrimp Scampi Dip
- 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes
- 1 pound Medium Shrimp, Peeled And Deveined
- 1/4 cups White Wine, Such As Pinot Grigio
- 1/2 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1 teaspoon Salt To Taste
- 1/2 teaspoons Cracked Black Pepper
- 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
- 1/4 cups Mayonnaise
- 1/4 cups Sour Cream
- 1/4 cups Fresh, Flat-leaf Parsley, Chopped
- 1 Tablespoon Sriracha Sauce
- 3/4 cups Mozzarella Cheese, Shredded
- 3/4 cups Panko Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 loaves French Bread, Sliced Into 1/2 Inch Slices
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- Start by melting your butter in a large skillet on medium heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the garlic and chili flakes.
- Give that a good stir, and cook for about a minute.
- Next, add the shrimp.
- Once the shrimp begin to turn opaque, add the wine and the lemon juice.
- Cook for about 2 minutes to let some of the wine cook off, then season with salt and pepper.
- Give a stir, then remove everything from the skillet and place into a bowl.
- Into a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, Sriracha and mozzarella cheese.
- Stir to incorporate all of those ingredients.
- Preheat your oven to 375 F.
- Once the shrimp have slightly cooled, give them a rough chop, and add everything into the cream cheese mixture.
- Give it another good stir.
- Fold this mixture into a baking dish.
- I used a 6 inch round dish (about 2 inches deep).
- Then cover the top with the panko breadcrumbs.
- Use a dish that you can eyeball and fit the entire mixture into.
- Onto a baking sheet, add the sliced French bread, and drizzle each slice with olive oil.
- Place the cheesy shrimp scampi dip and the French bread into the oven, and cook until the breadcrumbs are nice and golden, and the dip is completely cooked through.
- Ensure that the bread is nice and golden as well.
- This should take about 15 minutes.
- To serve, scoop the dip into serving bowl and dip your crostini into the dip.
