Savory Shrimp and Garlic Baguette Delight

Ingredients

- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 baguette, sliced
- 1/2 cup white wine

Instructions

1. Preparation (PT10M / 10 minutes):
- Begin by preparing the shrimp: peel and devein if necessary.
- In a small bowl, mix the shrimp with Creole seasoning and lemon zest, ensuring an even coat.

2. Sautéing the Shrimp (PT20M / 20 minutes):
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Once the butter is bubbling, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet.
- Let the shrimp cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and slightly translucent.
- Pour in the white wine, allowing it to simmer and reduce for 2 minutes. This will enhance the flavor and deglaze the pan.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley.

3. Preparing the Garlic Baguette (PT10M / 10 minutes):
- Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick pieces.
- In a separate small pan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
- Add the remaining minced garlic and sauté until just golden.
- Lightly brush this garlic-infused butter over each slice of baguette.

4. Assembly and Garnishing (PT5M / 5 minutes):
- Arrange the sautéed shrimp on a serving platter.
- Garnish by sprinkling the rest of the chopped parsley over the shrimp.
- Serve the shrimp alongside the garlic baguette slices, allowing them to soak up the buttery shrimp juices.
