Shrimp Casserole

Prepare this ahead of time, go to the beach for the day, then cook in a short time for the sunburned crowd.

4 tbsp unsalted butter (1/2 stick), melted
2 tsp minces garlic
1/4 cup minced scallions
1/2 cup coarsely chopped mushrooms
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1 pound large shrimp, off the shell
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup dry white wine

In a large bowl, mix the butter with the garlic, scallions, mushrooms, salt, pepper, and 1 tbsp of the olive oil. Add the shrimp and toss well to mix. You can do this some hours ahead of serving time and keep in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook.

In another bowl, toss the bread crumbs with the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil.

Pre-heat the oven to 425F. Place the shrimp mixture in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle the bread crumbs on top, and pour the wine over them. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the top is brown and the shrimp are cooked. Serve immediately.
