Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Fresh Shrimp, peeled and deveined – 8 oz (about 1 cup chopped)
  • White Bread – 6 slices (cut into 2-3 inch squares or triangles)
  • Garlic, freshly minced – 1 clove
  • Green Onions, thinly sliced – 2 stalks
  • Soy Sauce – 1 tablespoon
  • Egg White – 1
  • Sesame Seeds – 1 teaspoon
  • Black Pepper – ¼ teaspoon
  • Salt – ¼ teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp Mixture: Finely chop the fresh shrimp into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp with minced garlic, sliced green onions, soy sauce, egg white, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until it forms a sticky, well-incorporated paste.
  2. Prepare the Bread: Cut white bread into 2-3 inch squares or triangles. Lightly toast these pieces in the oven or toaster to start the crunch and help them hold the shrimp topping better.
  3. Assemble the Toasts: Spread a generous layer of the shrimp mixture evenly over each toasted bread piece. Press down gently to help the topping adhere. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added texture and flavor.
  4. Bake: Arrange the prepared toasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, until the shrimp topping is cooked through and the bread edges turn golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove the toasts from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm to enjoy the perfect combination of crunchy bread and juicy shrimp topping.

Notes

  • Use fresh or properly thawed shrimp for best flavor and texture.
  • Do not overload the bread with shrimp mixture to ensure even cooking.
  • Pre-toast the bread to prevent sogginess after baking.
  • Keep an eye on the toasts while baking to avoid burning.
  • Best served immediately for optimal crunch and taste.
