Garlic Shrimp in a Blanket
Chef John's shrimp in a blanket are an amazing twist on the party classic, and just about as easy to make. Shrimp marinates in a savory crushed garlic concoction, then gets wrapped in crescent roll dough and baked until deep golden brown. With big garlic flavor, these are fantastic on their own, and extremely delicious served with a quick mayo-mustard sauce.
