Shrimp is a staple in our diet and we always seem to have leftover ones in the fridge. We try to come up with creative ways to use the shrimp. This dish came about because it was lunch time, we were hungry, nothing was fixed and into the fridge we went.
There is really no recipe for this dish; it is a building of ingredients we had on hand. In our opinion it turned out great – very clean and fresh tasting!
We always try to keep roasted garlic in olive oil on hand. I always say we should own a garlic farm with the amount of garlic we use. If you have never roasted garlic in olive oil, try it. It keeps well, of course ours never last long enough to really know, and is good in almost everything.
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!

Delicious sandwich. I never had a shrimp and artichoke sandwich, but I think I will adopt your suggestion and prepare a meal like this. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the comment, we really love the sandwich. Just finished lunch with a variation on this theme using smoked salmon instead of shrimp. Equally good!
