Servings: 4 people

Equipment

  • skillet or griddle

Ingredients

  • 4 6-inch sections of sourdough loaf, sliced lengthwise
  • 6 tbsp softened butter
  • 1 1/2 cups shaved Parmesan cheese (or any cheese will work)
  • fresh basil leaves
  • 16 large shrimp grilled and seasoned with your favorite hot sauce

Instructions

  • Spread butter evenly on the inside parts of the sourdough bread. Toast, butter side down, on a flat top griddle or butter side up under a broiler until lightly browned. 
  • Place bread, toasted side up, on a work surface. Arrange half of the shaved cheese on 4 pieces. Place basil leaves on cheese and top with 4 shrimp. Place remaining cheese on shrimp and place other toasted bread half on top, pressing down firmly. 
  • Place sandwiches on a medium hot griddle or in a large skillet. Press sandwich into the hot pan to expedite the cheese melting part. Once it is lightly browned and the cheese is melted, cut sandwich in half and serve.
