BROILED SHRIMP TACOS
Shrimp can be purchased already peeled and deveined, if you prefer not to do it yourself. Frozen shrimp are also a good option; thaw them in the bag in a bowl of water. Broilers vary in heat intensity; adjust the rack as necessary to cook the shrimp through.

SHRIMP TOAST
Shrimp toast is one of the tastiest bites at the dim sum table. I didn't actually like shrimp toast growing up, but when I finally got around to trying it, I couldn't believe how much flavor was packed into one tiny unassuming square. These are crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle and really dangerous because they are so so addictive.

Steps:
- Put the shrimp and egg white in a food processor and pulse until pasty but still a little chunky. Add the sriracha, salt, sesame oil, black pepper, garlic, scallions and lemongrass and pulse until just combined.
- Divide the mixture among the bread slices and spread in an even layer to the edge. At this point, you can freeze the toasts while you heat the oil (although freezing is not totally necessary, it makes for cleaner cuts and easier handling).
- Bring 1 1/2 inches of oil to 350 degrees F in a heavy-bottomed pot.
- Cut each bread slice into 4 squares and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Carefully place each piece shrimp-side down into the oil. Fry until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove onto a rack or paper towel. Serve immediately drizzled with sriracha.

CREAMY GARLIC SHRIMP TOAST
Sweet, butterflied shrimp in a garlicky cream sauce with a smoky paprika flavor are served over thick slices of buttery, pan-toasted French bread in this simple recipe for two! This sauce would be good over pasta, rice, or potatoes, but I think enjoying it like this is the best way to go.

TOMATO TOAST WITH BUTTERED SHRIMP
Crisp, golden-brown toast is the perfect bed for impossibly ripe tomatoes, made even better when topped with saucy, garlicky shrimp. These fully assembled tomato toasts may require a knife and fork to properly tackle, but they are also wonderful eaten with your hands. Keeping the tails on the shrimp makes for a festive presentation, but feel free to remove them so you don't have to deal with them as you eat.

Steps:
- Finely chop 2 cloves of garlic and add to a small bowl with parsley; season with salt and pepper and set aside. Thinly slice remaining 4 garlic cloves; set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bread and toast until golden brown on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn bread, adding another drizzle of olive oil as needed and toast on the other side, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large serving platter and set aside.
- Heat butter and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet. Add the sliced garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, swirling skillet occasionally, until the butter starts to brown and the garlic is golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until shrimp are bright pink and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add white wine, if using, and let cook for a minute or two, just to take the edge off the wine (don't reduce so much that you lose that sauciness, though). Remove pan from heat.
- Place tomatoes on top of toast and sprinkle with half of the parsley-garlic mixture. Spoon shrimp and any buttery sauce in the skillet over the tomatoes and toast. Finish with remaining parsley-garlic mixture and serve with lemon wedges alongside.
Tips:
- Choose fresh shrimp: Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slightly translucent appearance. Avoid shrimp that are brown or have a slimy texture.
- Clean the shrimp properly: Remove the heads, shells, and tails from the shrimp. Devein the shrimp by making a shallow incision down the back of each shrimp and removing the dark vein.
- Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a flavorful mixture of ingredients, such as olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, will help to enhance the flavor of the shrimp.
- Use a flavorful bread: The type of bread you use for your shrimp toasts will have a big impact on the overall flavor of the dish. Choose a bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the shrimp and sauce, but not so dense that it overpowers the other flavors.
- Cook the shrimp toasts until they are golden brown: Keep an eye on the shrimp toasts while they are cooking to make sure that they do not burn. The shrimp should be cooked through and the bread should be golden brown.
Conclusion:
Broiled shrimp toasts are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your shrimp toasts turn out perfectly every time. So next time you are looking for a quick and tasty snack, give broiled shrimp toasts a try!
