This Cheesy Garlic Shrimp Appetizer is cooked in Butter and Lemon. All covered in three cheeses ! Perfect appetizer to any seafood main dish and ever so quick to make too !
Spray 6 snail bowls (escargot bowls) with cooking oil - all over, inside the holes as well as the top
Make sure the Shrimp is as dry as possible (see note below*) - place one piece in each hole and three pieces in the larger, center hole
Spoon a half teaspoonful of Lemon Juice over the Shrimp, followed by a quarter teaspoonful of Garlic and a teaspoonful of Unsalted Butter (see note below**) - season to taste with Salt and Black Pepper
Combine the three Cheeses and sprinkle over the 6 Shrimp filled bowls
Set your oven on the top grill element - place the Shrimp bowls on the center rack and bake until the Cheese is bubbly and slightly browned
Serve immediately, sprinkled with Parsley with brown bread fingers (crusts removed)

Notes
* To dry Shrimp - place in a colander for a few minutes, shaking every minute - pat dry with paper towels** The Lemon Juice, Garlic and Butter is calculated per Shrimp - therefore the center hole (if you have the same bowls as mine) would get three times as much of the aforementioned three ingredients
