Shrimp Avocado Garlic Bread

With 4th of July celebrations coming up for most of my readers, what better time to post these than NOW! These toasts disappear faster than the kids when you ask them to do the dishes. Step aside Speedy Gonzalez.

The ONLY way I can best describe these little toasts of heaven is, well, heaven. No…. just kidding.

How To Make Garlic Bread with Shrimp and Avocado

Take a chunky avocado dip –> pimp said avocado dip with shrimp  –> and then take crispy and juicy-in-the-centre-garlic-bread, fresh out of the oven. Now mix all that together in your thought processes and try to imagine the flavour explosion. You can’t, right? So that means you’ll have to make them and try them out for yourselves.

When I originally posted these as crostini in the link mentioned above, I didn’t add the garlic butter. BUT THEN, it just so happened we made them into a video and I accidentally on purpose spread garlic butter on my breads. Accidents happen ALL THE TIME in my kitchen. This time though, it was a GOOD ONE.

Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 10 mins
Total: 20 mins
Serves: 10 garlic breads

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf ciabatta (or sourdough) bread, cut into 1cm slices
  • 1/3 cup garlic butter

Garlic Shrimp:

  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • Juice of half a lemon (about 1-2 tablespoons)
  • 1 pound (500g) shrimp, no tail, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

Avocado Salad:

  • Cooked shrimp (see above)
  • 1 avocado, cubed
  • 1 cup grape (or cherry) tomatoes, halved
  • Juice of half a lemon (about 1-2 tablespoons)
  • Salt to season

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to grill/broil settings on medium - high heat. Place bread on a baking tray lightly greased with cooking oil spray or oil. Spread a thin layer of garlic butter on each slice (you should between 12-15 slices). Grill/broil until golden. Remove and set aside. (While garlic bread is baking, prepare the rest of your ingredients while keeping an eye on your bread.)

For The Garlic Shrimp:

  • Combine garlic, paprika, lemon juice and shrimp in a bowl and mix well to combine the ingredients. Add salt to season (to your tastes). Drizzle about a teaspoon of oil into a large frying pan or skillet. When pan is hot, and the shrimp and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, until no longer opaque in colour, and cooked through (being careful not to overcook them). Take off the heat and add the parsley. Set aside to cool slightly.

Salad:

  • Combine the avocado, tomato, lemon juice and salt in a bowl, mixing well to combine. Add the shrimp, and fold through gently. Spoon shrimp and avocado mixture onto toasted garlic bread. Serve warm or slightly cooled!

    This looks good. Where does the 12g of sugar come from?
