Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 375º with oven rack in top position.
In a large bowl, beat (with a mixer) cream cheese, mozzarella, sour cream, mayonnaise, Parmesan, 2 Tbsp of breadcrumbs and 1/2 tsp salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to add the shrimp.
Melt 2 Tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shrimp, garlic, 1/4 tsp salt and the red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp just start to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, bring to a simmer and cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes (there will be some liquid left in the skillet). Remove the skillet from the heat, and let the shrimp cool completely.
Meanwhile, mix together the parsley, the remaining 2 Tbsp breadcrumbs and 1 Tbsp melted butter, the lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Stir the shrimp, pan sauce and cream cheese mixtures together to combine; transfer to a 2-quart flameproof baking dish. (You can cover and refrigerated overnight if desired) Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the dip and bake until hot and bubbly 15 to 20 minutes. Switch the oven to broil and cook until the top is golden brown 1 to 3 minutes. Let rest for a few minutes then serve hot with bread and/or crackers. |
