Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together except bread crumbs and 1/4 cup margarine.
- Pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish.
- Top with bread crumbs and the remaining margarine.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter version, consider using olive oil instead of margarine. You can also replace half of the ketchup with a homemade tomato sauce for added freshness. If you prefer more heat, adjust the Tabasco to your taste. Using pre-cooked shrimp shortens preparation time, but ensure they're not overcooked when mixing. This dish can be complemented with a side of Shrimp Asparagus Salad for a refreshing contrast.
Serving Suggestions
This dish is best served hot, straight from the oven, with a garnish of fresh parsley for color. Pair it with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal. For a complete seafood experience, consider serving it alongside a bowl of Clam Bisque or a light white wine to enhance the flavors.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in an oven-safe dish and cover with foil to prevent drying out. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. Avoid reheating in the microwave, as it can make the shrimp rubbery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen shrimp for this recipe?
Yes, you can use frozen shrimp. Just make sure to thaw them completely and pat them dry before cooking. This ensures that excess moisture doesn't affect the dish's texture. Follow the package instructions for thawing, usually best done in the refrigerator overnight, or under cold running water for a quicker option.
What can I substitute for Worcestershire sauce?
If you don't have Worcestershire sauce, you can use soy sauce mixed with a bit of vinegar and sugar as a substitute. Alternatively, a combination of balsamic vinegar and a dash of hot sauce can mimic the complex flavors of Worcestershire. Adjust to taste, as these substitutes may vary in saltiness and sweetness.
Is this dish suitable for meal prep?
Absolutely! This dish is great for meal prep. You can prepare it ahead of time and store it in portions. Just keep the topping separate until you're ready to bake, which helps maintain the crunchiness of the breadcrumbs. It reheats well, making it perfect for quick weeknight dinners.
