Instructions
- Peel shrimp leaving tails and slice down middle deveining as you go.
- Lay on greased cookie sheet to form a circle with the tail pointing up.
- (Fan the tail out for beauty and handle) Mix first 7 ingredients and gently fold into crabmeat.
- Place a spoonful of crabmeat mixture on top of the circle.
- Top with fresh parmesan (optional) Place cookie sheet in 350 degree oven for 15 minutes, remove with spatula to serving tray, Serve immediately.
- Also, try stuffing mushrooms which only take 10-15 minutes in the oven, same temp.
- To prepare for a party, prepare trays, cover with plastic wrap and store in refrigerator, then just place in oven when ready and serve in 15 minutes!
- Having medium shrimp saves money and makes more of a finger-food size.
- I've made extra and frozen some to be used as side dishes.
- If you can't get seafood where you live, you can order all supplies from a seafood place in Florida- Joe Patti's Seafood online.
- Even mid-westerners can enjoy a special fresh seafood treat.
