For the Bread

For the Filling
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted Adds richness and helps achieve that golden, crispy crust.
  • 1 pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined The star ingredient, bringing sweet and succulent seafood flavor; frozen shrimp can work in a pinch.

How to Make Amazing Crabby Shrimp Stuffed Garlic Bread Bombs
  1. Chop the fresh shrimp into small, bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until everything is fully incorporated and creamy.
  3. Slice the crusty Italian bread in half lengthwise and carefully hollow out the center.
  4. Spoon the shrimp mixture evenly into the hollowed-out bread halves.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and brush the outside of the filled bread with melted butter.
  6. Wrap each half of the filled bread in foil and bake for 15 minutes.
  7. After 15 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  8. Allow the bombs to cool for a few moments, then slice them into portions and serve warm.
