Where to find ingredients
Look for the shrimp at the seafood counter, and buy the cheeses, cream, mustard, tomato paste, and requeijão in the dairy and grocery aisles. If you cannot find requeijão, use it only as a substitute in the same creamy style available locally.
Preparation method
- Heat a pan and sauté the garlic in the olive oil until golden.
- Add the shrimp and sauté until pink and cooked through.
- Add the fresh and dry seasonings, mix well, and let it cook down for a few minutes.
- Season with salt, mustard, and tomato paste, stirring to blend the flavours.
- Arrange the cheese slices over the shrimp, being careful not to let them stick to the bottom of the pan.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a little boiling water little by little until it reaches the desired consistency.
- When the cheeses have melted, add the requeijão cremoso and the heavy cream, then stir well.
- When the sauce starts to boil, turn off the heat.
- Transfer to a baking dish and serve hot.
