Directions

In a sauce pan, melt the butter and gently whisk in the flour. Add the garlic and lemon juice, and stir. Add the shrimps and cook just until they are turning white; add milk little at a time and let mixture simmer to thicken to your desired consistency. DO NOT BRING TO FULL BOIL. If desired, toss in a pinch or two of the chopped parsley near the end. Taste to see if sauce needs more lemon juice, salt or pepper. When loaf is done, turn out onto a platter, cut into at least 1 inch slices, spoon sauce over slices and serve. Note about the bread crumbs you may use plain bread crumbs, seasoned crumbs, or make your own from any bread you have on hand, or even from soda crackers, Cheese Nips, Ritz crackers, croutons, etc. Experiment with the different flavors. Approx 1/2 lb raw shrimp, shelled & deveined; chopped 1 stick of unsalted butter 1 teaspoon of flour 1 clove garlic, finely minced 1/2 cup of milk Juice of half a lemon (or lime) Salt & pepper to taste Finely chopped parsley (optional)

Comments

Good accompaniments to this dish are green vegetables that are slightly sweet such as baby English peas or snow peas. A crisp Pinot Grigio goes well with the dish, or if you don't like the dish, drink enough wine so that you don't care.
