Time 1h

Yield Makes 4 triple-decker sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 teaspoon vegetable oil, plus 3 tablespoons
3 ounces (about 5 large) shallots, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup (4 ounces) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 lemon, juiced
Salt
White pepper
1/2 pound (about 20 small) peeled shrimp
1/2 cup mayonnaise, preferably homemade
12 thin slices sourdough bread
2 cups baby lettuce or 8 nice pieces romaine or iceberg lettuce
1 (1/2 pound) tomato, cut into 12 thin slices
6 ounces (12 thick slices) bacon, cooked and drained
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the barbecue or grill.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat 1-teaspoon oil. Sweat the shallots for about 2 minutes. Do not brown. Deglaze the pan with the wine and vinegar and reduce slightly. Pour in the cream and reduce the sauce by half. Whisk in the butter and strain into a clean pan. Season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper, to taste. Keep warm.
  • Sprinkle the 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over the shrimp. Grill the shrimp, about 1-1/2 minutes on each side. Do not overcook. Drain and cut each shrimp in half lengthwise.
  • For each sandwich, spread a little mayonnaise on 1 slice of bread and arrange a little lettuce (or 1 piece) on the bread. Top with 3 slices of tomato, season lightly with salt and pepper, and arrange the bacon on the tomatoes. Top with the second slice of bread, a thin layer of mayonnaise, and a little lettuce. Heat the shrimp (10 halves) in the lemon butter and arrange on the lettuce. Top with the third slice of bread and cut in half. Serve immediately.

I loved the smoky flavor of the shrimp in this sandwich. It's the perfect balance to the sweet and tangy barbecue sauce.

This sandwich is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I always have a few shrimp left over after a shrimp boil, and this is the perfect way to use them up.

This sandwich is so messy, in the best way possible. The shrimp are juicy, the bacon is crispy, and the sauce is tangy and delicious.
