Ingredients

Preparation Method

Prepare the Garlic Butter Shrimp:
Melt Butter: In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Cook Shrimp: Add the shrimp to the skillet, seasoning with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Cook the shrimp until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Prepare the Garlic Butter:
Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the remaining butter with half of the chopped parsley and some additional minced garlic. Stir until well mixed.
Assemble the Sandwiches:
Spread Garlic Butter: Spread the prepared garlic butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Layer Ingredients: On the non-buttered side of 4 slices of bread, layer a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by the cooked shrimp, and then a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
Add Parsley: Sprinkle the remaining parsley over the cheese.
Top with Bread: Place another slice of bread on top of each sandwich, buttered side facing out.
Grill the Sandwiches:
Heat Skillet: Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Cook Sandwiches: Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet. Cook each sandwich until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside is fully melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Serve:
Cut and Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for a minute. Cut each sandwich in half and serve hot.
Enjoy: Savor your delicious Cheesy Garlic Bread Shrimp Grilled Cheese while it’s warm and gooey.
