Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.33 cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces sub rolls
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink.
Pour in the white wine, lemon juice, and sprinkle the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and chopped parsley. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.
Place the sub rolls on a baking sheet. Cut them open lengthwise without slicing all the way through.
Spoon the shrimp and sauce evenly into the sub rolls.
Top each roll with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and serve hot. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
