Baked Stuffed Shrimp with Ritz Crackers® Recipe

Directions

Ingredients :

2 (4 ounce) packages crushed buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®)

cooking spray

½ cup parsley

5 saltine crackers, crushed

½ teaspoon celery salt

1 clove minced garlic

4 sea scallops, chopped

½ cup chopped imitation crabmeat

¼ cup butter, melted

¼ cup white cooking wine

20 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined

Methods :

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat a baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Mix crushed round crackers, parsley, saltines, celery salt, and garlic together in a large bowl. Add scallops, crabmeat, melted butter, and cooking wine; mix stuffing well.

Step 3

Place a shrimp on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Repeat with remaining shrimp.

Step 4

Stuff each shrimp with a heaping tablespoon of stuffing and place back-side up in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining shrimp and stuffing. Add 1 or 2 tablespoons water to the bottom of the baking dish to keep shrimp moist during baking.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until shrimp are opaque and stuffing is beginning to brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
