4 medium russet potatoes
¼ cup butter, at room temperature

Add any overflow that won't fit into the top pieces. Slice 4 remaining shrimp in half lengthwise and arrange 2 pieces on top of each filled potato.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, filling is heated through, and top is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweet, briny flavor that is perfect for stuffing. Avoid frozen shrimp, which can be tough and bland.
  • Make sure the shrimp are deveined. Deveining the shrimp removes the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat. You can devein the shrimp yourself using a sharp knife, or you can buy them pre-deveined.
  • Use a variety of fillings. The blue cheese filling in this recipe is just one option. You can also stuff shrimp with crabmeat, lobster, vegetables, or even fruit.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese stuffed shrimp is a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a dish that will impress your guests.
