Here is one of Big Billy’s favorite dishes. No, he wasn’t of Italian ancestry, but he sure knew how to cook their signature delicacies. This is one he made his own.
Ingredients
• 2 lbs shrimp, cooked and deveined
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 4 stalks celery, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 Tbsp parsley, fresh, finely minced
• 1 Tbsp cornstarch
• 1 8 oz can tomato sauce
• ½ tsp oregano
• ½ tsp sweet basil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 c Mozzarella cheese, grated
• ½ c bread crumbs, seasoned
Directions
In a saucepan, sauté onions, celery, green pepper, garlic and parsley in olive oil until soft. Add cornstarch and stir until well blended. Add tomato sauce, oregano and sweet basil and simmer for fifteen minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Layer the shrimp, and the tomato mixture in a greased casserole dish. Top with Mozzarella and bread crumbs and cook at 350 degrees until bubbly, about thirty minutes.
