Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until butter melts. Reduce heat to medium, whisk in flour, and stir until a thick paste forms, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a simmer. Cook and stir until the sauce is thick and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with nutmeg and salt.

  3. Place shrimp in a casserole dish and coat with 3 teaspoons Italian seasoning and salt to taste. Cover with sauce and sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top. Add shallot, remaining Italian seasoning, and parsley. Top with bread crumbs, followed by Parmesan cheese.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until crisp, about 25 minutes.

Recipe Note

A unique way to eating shrimp, it's au gratin. Try it over grilled veggies and it's even better. It's very filling and appetizing. You can serve the shrimp au gratin on top of some of your favorite grilled vegetables, like portobello mushrooms.
