Ultimate Shrimp Grilled Cheese with Garlic Bread

ADVERTISEMENT

### 🔥 Instructions:

1. **Make the Garlic Butter:**
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic and parsley. Spread generously on one side of each bread slice.

2. **Sauté the Shrimp:**
In a skillet over medium heat, cook shrimp in a little olive oil or butter. Season with Old Bay, salt, and pepper. Cook just until pink and opaque (2–3 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.

3. **Assemble the Sandwiches:**
Place two slices of bread, garlic-butter side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Top with a mix of cheeses, a few spoonfuls of cooked shrimp, and a little dollop of cream cheese if using. Finish with another layer of cheese, then top with the second slice of bread (garlic-butter side up).

4. **Grill to Perfection:**
Cook each sandwich until golden brown and crispy on the outside, and gooey inside—about 3–4 minutes per side. Press down slightly with a spatula for that irresistible crust.

5. **Serve Hot:**
Slice and serve immediately. Pair with a simple salad, fries, or even a bowl of creamy tomato bisque for the ultimate combo.
