This open-faced sandwich is fantastic! The recipe is adapted from one in a book given to me several years ago by my mother-in-law called "Season's Greetings", by Marlene Sorosky. Marinating time is not included in prep time.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 dash cayenne pepper
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 lb large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 loaf French bread, cut in half horizontally (reserve half for other use)
6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
5 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons sliced black olives
3 tablespoons chopped pimiento

Steps:

To make the marinade, mix the oil, garlic, mustard, salt, lemon juice, vinegar, and cayenne in a medium glass or plastic bowl. Stir in the sliced onion and shrimp. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator up to 3 hours.
Using your hands, remove as much bread as possible from the inside of the half-loaf of French bread, leaving a 1-inch rim. Place the bread pieces in a food processor (fitted with metal blade) and process into crumbs; measure 1 cup. Saute' the 1 cup crumbs in 2 tablespoons of the butter until golden; set aside.
Preheat oven to 400°F With a fork, mix remaining 4 tablespoons butter with 3 tablespoons parsley and the garlic in a small bowl until combined. Spread on the inside of the hollowed loaf. Remove the shrimp and onions from the marinade (reserving marinade) and place in the loaf. Sprinkle with the olives and pimento, then drizzle with 3 tablespoons marinade (discard remaining marinade). Sprinkle with the sauteed bread crumbs and remaining 2 tablespoons parsley.
Place the bread on a sheet of foil in the center of the oven. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the bread is crusty (watch closely--mine did not take this long).
Using a sharp, serrated knife (or a large mezzaluna, as I used), cut into 6 slices to serve. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Categories Sandwich Pepper Shrimp Corn Summer Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 large ear of corn, husked
1 1/2 cups cooked peeled tiny shrimp (such as bay shrimp; about 10 ounces)
1 cup diced red bell pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
6 3- to 4-inch-diameter egg-bread rolls, cut horizontally almost in half

Steps:

Cook corn in pot of boiling salted water 3 minutes. Drain; cool. Cut kernels off cob. Place corn kernels in medium bowl. Add shrimp, bell pepper, cilantro, green onion, lime juice, lime peel, and hot pepper sauce; toss to blend. Mix in mayonnaise. Season salad with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill.)
Pull some bread out of each roll half, hollowing out slightly. Divide salad among rolls and serve.

Tips:

For the best results, use fresh, high-quality shrimp.
Be sure to devein and clean the shrimp before cooking.
Cook the shrimp until they are just pink and opaque. Overcooking will make them tough.
Use a good quality mayonnaise. Homemade mayonnaise is always best, but a store-bought brand that you like will also work.
Add some chopped celery, onion, and dill to the mayonnaise for extra flavor.
Use a soft, fluffy bread for the sandwiches. White bread, wheat bread, or even croissants are all good choices.
Toast the bread before assembling the sandwiches for a bit of extra crunch.
Serve the sandwiches immediately, or wrap them tightly and store them in the refrigerator for later.

Shrimp luncheon sandwiches are a classic summertime dish that is perfect for parties, picnics, or a light lunch. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences.
