Garlic Butter Shrimp ‘Escargot’ Bites
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Melt the butter with the garlic in a skillet over medium heat until the butter starts to bubble. Add the shrimp and cook until they just turn pink, about 3 minutes. Put 1 shrimp into each mushroom cap, then set the mushroom caps in a small baking dish. Spoon the garlic butter into the mushroom caps and sprinkle each with mozzarella cheese.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbly, 10 to 15 minutes.
