..came out very very delicious! I made Bruschetta with shrimp, garlic and arugula. It may not seem like the biggest dinner and would probably be great as an appetizer, but it was plenty for us and we were more than satisfied when finished.
Here is the recipe (I tend to not follow recipes that closely and eye-ball it to taste/look/how many I'm feeding):
-shrimp (raw is best, not pre-cooked)
-2 shallots (schalottenlok)
-2 garlic cloves
-3 tomatoes
-white wine
-chicken stock
-Mascarpone cheese
-Arugula
-salt & pepper
-olive oil
-ciabatta bread/italian bread
The bread:
Cut the bread in slices and put on a pan and drizzle with olive oil and put in oven on 400 F (200C) for about 10 min. When they are out of the oven cut a garlic clove in half and rub the slices of bread with it.
Bruschetta:
Slice the shallots and chop the garlic and saute in olive oil for about 2-3 minutes. Then add the shrimp + pepper and salt to the pan. Cook until shrimp is cooked through and then take it all out of the pan. Chop the shrimp mixture into pieces.
In the same pan add chopped tomatoes and salt+pepper and cook for a while. Put in wine (1/4 cup or so, or 1dl) and stir up all the pieces on the bottom of pan. Put in the same amount of chicken stock in the pan and cook until all the liquid is evaporated. Then remove the pan from heat and put in arugula (to taste), Mascarpone cheese (1/4-1/3 cup or 1dl or so) and the chopped shrimp mixture. Maybe some more salt and pepper to taste.
Then scoop the mixture onto the slices of bread. SOOOO yummy!
Try it why don't ya!
