Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil, then add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add shrimp to the skillet, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and cook until pink and opaque, approximately 3 minutes per side.
Stir in lemon juice, then remove the shrimp from heat and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
Add almond flour, egg, and baking powder to the cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick.
Use a round cutter or a glass to cut out 4 rounds from the dough.
Bake the rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
While the bread is baking, mix mayonnaise with chopped dill and chives in a small bowl.
Once the bread rounds are baked, let them cool slightly.
To assemble the sandwich, spread the dill-mayonnaise mix on one side of each cheese bread round.
Place a lettuce leaf on the mayonnaise side of two rounds.
Divide the cooked shrimp evenly between the two sandwiches.
Top each with another lettuce-covered bread round, pressing gently.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Classic Shrimp Sandwich!
