Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you about a seafood snack that’s so good, it’ll have you sneaking to the kitchen at midnight like a total foodie ninja! I’m talking about my Crispy Garlic Butter Shrimp Toast – it’s absolutely divine and perfect for those late-night cravings when you want something fancy but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen.
Trust me, honey, I’ve had my fair share of midnight munchies, and this recipe is a game-changer! It’s like a warm hug for your taste buds, and who doesn’t need that at midnight? 😉
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 8 medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 4 slices of brioche bread
– 4 tablespoons butter (real butter, darling – none of that fake stuff!)
– 4 cloves of garlic, minced
– Fresh parsley
– A pinch of red pepper flakes
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
Let’s get cooking!
First, chop those shrimp into small pieces – we want them nice and bite-sized. In a bowl, mix them with half the minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Let that sit for a few minutes while you prep everything else.

Now, melt that butter in a pan over medium heat, add the remaining garlic, and let it become fragrant – but don’t burn it! Nobody likes burnt garlic, trust me on this one!
Cut your brioche slices into triangles (because we’re fancy like that), and lightly toast them until they’re golden brown. Spread that gorgeous garlic butter on each piece.
Top each triangle with your seasoned shrimp mixture, and pop them back in the pan for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and slightly crispy. Sprinkle with parsley and red pepper flakes for that extra oomph!
The result? A crispy, buttery, garlicky piece of heaven that’s totally worth staying up for! It’s perfect for those nights when you’re binge-watching your favorite show or just can’t sleep because you’re thinking about food (we’ve all been there!).
Y’all, I cannot stress enough how this recipe has saved me from boring midnight snacks. It’s quick, it’s fancy, and it makes you feel like you’re dining at a five-star restaurant – even if you’re wearing your comfy PJs!
