What an easy and elegant appetizer! I use small pre-cooked and peeled frozen shrimp to make things really speedy. Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) can artichoke bottoms |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 cup heavy cream |
2 tablespoons dry sherry |
40 small cooked shrimp, coarsely chopped |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded |
1/2 cup swiss cheese, shredded |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Drain and arrange artichoke bottoms in a buttered glass pie dish. 3. In a sauce pan, melt butter and blend in flour. Stir in heavy cream and cook over low medium-low heat until sauce thickens. Add sherry and shrimp, then cheese and salt. Cook until cheese melts. Pour this mixture over artichoke bottoms and bake for 20 minutes. 4. Serve immediately. |
