Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup creamy (plant-based) cheese
  • 2 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 2 tbsp butter (plant-based)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (natural)
  • 1 tsp natural gelling agent
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the shrimp: Rinse the peeled and deveined shrimp under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and black pepper to enhance their natural flavor.
  2. Sauté the garlic: Melt the (plant-based) butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and slightly golden, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Cook the shrimp: Add the shrimp to the skillet and sauté until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side, being careful not to overcook.
  4. Prepare the creamy sauce: In a small bowl, mix creamy (plant-based) cheese, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), lemon juice (natural), and the natural gelling agent until smooth. Pour this sauce over the shrimp in the skillet and gently stir to coat.
  5. Bake to perfection: Transfer the shrimp and sauce mixture to a baking dish. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.

Notes

  • Always choose fresh or properly thawed shrimp for the best texture and flavor.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp to keep them tender and juicy.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or lemon juice before baking.
  • Use fresh minced garlic for brighter flavor.
  • Allow the dish to rest a few minutes after baking for flavors to meld.
