Shrimp Du Jonghe

Directions

Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃).

Parboil the shrimp in the boiling salted water for 2 minutes.

Drain the shrimp well and reserve.

Toss the crumbs with the parsley, chives, tarragon, marjoram, chervil, garlic and shallots.

Add the butter, lemon juice, sherry, salt and pepper.

Cream the mixture well, until it forms a fairly smooth paste.

Arrange the shrimp in a well-buttered 1-quart au gratin pan or shallow casserole.

Spread the crumb mixture on top as evenly as possible.

Bake uncovered for about 25 minutes, until bubbly and lightly browned.

Serve with a tartly dressed crisp green salad.
