Limoncello Shrimp Crostini image

Shrimp served with a limoncello sauce over toasted baguettes. I have also doubled the recipe (all but the shrimp) and poured it over pasta or white rice for dinner.

Time 50m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 baguette, sliced
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon dried savory
¼ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
2 shallots, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
24 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup limoncello liqueur (such as Caravella®)
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
⅓ cup heavy cream
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place 24 baguette slices onto a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until toasted, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Stir in savory, basil, and thyme; cook for 1 minute. Add shallots and cook until transparent, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook, being careful not to burn, about 1 minute more.
  • Saute shrimp in the same pan over medium to medium-high heat until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer shrimp quickly to a separate dish; do not overcook.
  • Pour limoncello and lemon juice into the same pan and cook over medium heat until mixture is reduced by about half, 7 to 9 minutes. Add heavy cream gradually. Season with salt and pepper. Add shrimp back into the pan and heat, stirring to coat, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Spoon 1 shrimp with sauce onto each baguette slice. Serve.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The Limoncello sauce didn't have much flavor and the shrimp were overcooked. I wouldn't make this again.
