Steps:
- For the toasts: Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake until light golden, about 10 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes. Rub the warm toasts with the cut side of the garlic. Set aside.
- For the topping: In a medium skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 2 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, to taste, and add them to the skillet. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the shrimp and chop into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook over medium-high heat until the tomatoes start to soften, about 4 minutes. Turn the heat to high. Add the wine and scrape up the brown bits that cling to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the stock and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the tarragon, arugula, mascarpone cheese, and chopped shrimp. Stir until the mixture is creamy. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Arrange the toasts on serving plates and drizzle with the sauce. Sprinkle with salt and pepper before serving.
SUPER SHRIMP AND GARLIC BRUSCHETTA
I created this today from ingredients that I had on hand to serve as my Sunday afternoon appetizer. It was so tasty (IMHO) that I decided to post the recipe., If you like a crisp bruschetta toast both sides of the bread. This appetizer went over well served with a Martini but I think you will enjoy it even without the Mart Mart!

Tips:
- Choose fresh, large shrimp: Look for shrimp that are firm and have a shiny, translucent appearance.
- devein the shrimp: Deveining removes the intestinal tract from the shrimp, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat. To devein a shrimp, use a sharp knife to make a shallow cut along the back of the shrimp, from the head to the tail. Then, use your fingers to pull out the intestinal tract.
- Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and herbs will help to flavor and tenderize them.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cook quickly, so it is important to not overcook them. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.
- Use a good quality bread for the bruschetta: A sturdy bread that can hold up to the toppings is best. A baguette or ciabatta bread works well.
- Toast the bread properly: Toasting the bread will help to create a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
- Use fresh, flavorful toppings: The toppings are what really make the bruschetta shine. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, basil, and garlic. You can also add other toppings, such as roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, or grilled zucchini.
Conclusion:
Shrimp and garlic bruschetta is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties or potlucks, and it can also be served as a main course. With its combination of fresh, flavorful ingredients, shrimp and garlic bruschetta is sure to please everyone at your table.
