CROSTINI OF CLAMS, MUSSELS, AND SHRIMP



Crostini of Clams, Mussels, and Shrimp image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 littleneck clams
8 small mussels
6 small shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing bread
3 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded, chopped, and drained
2 tablespoons dry white wine
24 slices Italian bread

Steps:

  • Scrub the shellfish clean. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a heavy pot over medium heat. Place the clams and mussels in the pot and cover. The shells should be open in about 7 to 10 minutes. (discard any that don't) Strain and reserve the liquid. Remove the shellfish from the shells and discard the shells. Dice the shrimp, clams, and mussels.
  • Chop 1 clove of the garlic and saute in the remaining tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat; do not let it brown. Add the shellfish, parsley, and pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes. In a separate pot, combine the tomatoes, wine, and reserved shellfish broth over medium heat. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until thickened. Add to the shellfish and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Rub the bread with the remaining 2 garlic cloves and brush with olive oil. Arrange in a single layer on a sheet pan and toast both sides. Top each piece of toast with a portion of the seafood mixture, arrange on a platter and serve warm

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality shrimp. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are slimy or have a strong odor.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality baguette. A fresh, crusty baguette will make your crostini even more delicious.
  • Slice the baguette thinly. Thin slices will help the crostini cook evenly.
  • Brush the baguette slices with olive oil. This will help them to crisp up in the oven.
  • Season the crostini with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or Italian seasoning.
  • Bake the crostini until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them so that they don't burn.
  • Top the crostini with shrimp and your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include avocado, tomato, and feta cheese.

Conclusion:

Shrimp crostini are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give shrimp crostini a try.
