Shrimp Parmesan Hero, Lightened Up

4.88 from 8 votes

This Shrimp Parmigiana Hero is lightened up by baking the shrimp instead of frying. I also like to scoop out some of the bread, it's delish!

Prep Time: 5

Cook Time: 25

Total Time: 30

Yield: 4 servings

Course: Dinner, Lunch

Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients

For the shrimp:

16 oz jumbo shrimp
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup egg whites (or whole eggs, beaten)
6 tbsp whole wheat Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (or gluten free crumbs)
2 tbsp panko crumbs (or gluten free panko)
2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (grated )
olive oil spray

For the sandwich:

1/2 cup Marinara or your homemade marinara sauce
1 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese (4 oz )
12 ounces French bread (sliced into 4 pieces)

Instructions

Start with the breaded shrimp (see recipe for directions).
Preheat oven to 425F or set your broiler to low. Scoop out the inside of the bread to make a longer hero, making sure after its scooped each piece is 3 oz.
When shrimp is cooked, divide shrimp equally between 4 pieces of bread.
Top each sandwich with marinara and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place sandwiches on a sheet pan and heat in the oven or broiler until the cheese melts; 2 - 3 minutes, careful not to burn if using the broiler.
