Ingredients
Directions
1. Wash shrimp and pat dry.
2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a heave saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add shrimp, shallots and minced garlic. Saute for about 3 minutes or until shrimp has just turned pink. Scrape in a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Chop, using quick on-and-off turns. Add 1/3 cup oil, bread crumbs, parsley, cheese, capers, lemon juice, salt and pepper and process until just combined. Do not puree.
3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
4. Using 1/4 cup oil, brush each slice of bread and then rub with the garlic clove. Lay the slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for about 6 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and spread the shrimp mixture on top of each slice. Drizzle with remaining oil and serve immediately.
