Cheesy Garlic Bread Shrimp Grilled Cheese Directions:
- In a small bowl, mix the light butter with minced garlic. If using cooking spray, skip the butter and simply spray the bread. Spread this garlic butter mixture evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
- Heat a skillet with cooking spray over medium heat. Add the shrimp, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Add a slice of bread, garlic butter side down, to the pan.
- Add a layer of shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese on the bread, followed by some of the cooked shrimp. If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle a small amount (or omit to save points).
- Top with another slice of bread, garlic butter side up.
- Cook until the bottom slice is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip the sandwich and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted, another 3-4 minutes.
- Remove from the skillet and let the sandwich rest for a minute before slicing. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
- Sprinkle a little dried parsley over the top for extra flavor and color.
