Garlicky Shrimp De Jonghe
Shrimp De Jonghe, a classic Chicago dish, consists of shrimp baked underneath garlicky breadcrumbs.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds peeled, deveined, raw jumbo shrimp
- 3/4 cup dry sherry
- 2 sticks butter
- 2 medium cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/2 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, minced
- 1 tablespoon minced white onion
- 1 1/2 cups seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Directions
- Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Arrange shrimp evenly across the bottom.
- Place sherry, butter, garlic, parsley, thyme, onion, breadcrumbs and cayenne in the bowl of a food processor. Season with salt and pepper and pulse to combine until it becomes a paste-like mixture. Spread evenly over shrimp.
- Transfer to oven and bake until shrimp is firm and no longer translucent, and breadcrumbs are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
