Shrimp Parmigiana

I serve the shrimp parmigiana with Linguine pasta.

Ingredients:

1/2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled, and butterflied
1/2 cup all-purpose flour

8 to 10 ozs mozzarella cheese

1 cup freshly grated breadcrumbs

1 1/2 cups marinara sauce

Egg Batter:

2 eggs
1/4 cup grated  Parmigiana cheese
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley

salt and pepper

Method:

Preheat broiler.

Whisk the eggs together with the Parmigiana cheese, Italian parsley, salt and pepper.  

Heat oil about 1/4 cup of olive oil.

Dredge each shrimp in flour, then in the egg batter, then in the breadcrumbs. Once the oil is hot add the shrimp and fry for 3 to 4 minutes until brown and crispy.

Remove shrimp and lay them in casserole dish which is covered with a thin layer of Marinara sauce. Sprinkle some parmigiana cheese on the shrimp, then add  place a piece of mozzarella to top of the shrimp. Pour Marinara sauce around the shrimp and drizzle some of the sauce over the top.

Broil the shrimp until cheese is bubbly and golden in color. Garnish with parsley and serve with linguine pasta
