Dill Aioli

Fried Parker House Toast

Method

Shrimp

  1. 1

    Poach the Shrimp

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of salt. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and add the shrimp. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pot and set aside to cool.

Dill Aioli

  1. 2

    Prepare the Dill Aioli

    In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh dill, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until creamy and well combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Fried Parker House Toast

  1. 3

    Prepare and Fry the Toast

    Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Brush each Parker House roll with melted butter and sprinkle with salt. Place the rolls in the skillet, cut-side down, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Assembly

    Assemble the Shrimp Toast

    Take the fried Parker House toast and spread a generous amount of dill aioli on each piece. Top with the lemon-poached shrimp. Serve immediately and enjoy your Shrimp Toast!
