Description

Baked Shrimp Toast is a crispy, savory snack featuring tender, seasoned shrimp atop golden toasted bread. This easy-to-make appetizer balances crunchy textures with rich seafood flavors, perfect for parties, gatherings, or a quick indulgence. Customizable and elegant, it impresses guests while requiring minimal ingredients and effort.

Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp Mixture

  • 8 oz fresh or thawed shrimp, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 large egg

Bread

  • 6 slices white sandwich bread (or brioche or gluten-free bread for variation)

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp Mixture: Finely chop the shrimp and mix with minced garlic, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, and the egg until well combined. This mixture binds together and infuses flavor throughout.
  2. Cut and Toast the Bread: Trim crusts off the bread slices and cut each into triangles or rectangles. Lightly toast them until just golden to prevent sogginess after assembly.
  3. Assemble the Toasts: Spread a generous but even layer of the shrimp mixture on each piece of toasted bread. Avoid piling too thickly to ensure even cooking.
  4. Add Crunch Topping: Sprinkle panko or breadcrumbs evenly over the shrimp layer to add an irresistible crispy finish once baked.
  5. Bake: Place the assembled toasts on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes until shrimp is cooked through and bread is golden and crisp.

Notes

  • Use fresh or properly thawed shrimp for best texture and flavor.
  • Do not overload the bread with shrimp mixture to ensure even cooking and crispness.
  • Lightly toast bread before applying the shrimp mixture to avoid sogginess.
  • Prepare shrimp mixture in advance and refrigerate for quick assembly.
  • Check oven temperature for accurate baking to prevent drying out.
