Shrimp Scampi Topping
Method
Preparation
Cook the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the skillet, cooking until they turn pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Add Wine and Season
Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, and let the mixture simmer for about 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Finish with Parsley
Stir in the fresh parsley just before removing from heat.
Prepare the Bruschetta Base
While the shrimp is cooking, slice a baguette into 1/2-inch slices and toast them in an oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
Assemble
Top each toasted baguette slice with a spoonful of the shrimp scampi mixture.
