Crispy Cheesy Garlic Shrimp Bombs

Crispy Cheesy Garlic Shrimp Bombs are the ultimate indulgent appetizer—golden and crunchy on the outside, with a molten, garlicky cheese center that oozes with every bite. These irresistible little bites combine perfectly seasoned shrimp with a rich, creamy filling for a dramatic and delicious result.

The secret lies in the contrast. Tender shrimp wrap around a blend of mozzarella and cream cheese, then get coated in a flavorful breadcrumb crust that fries up beautifully crisp. A final brush of warm garlic butter takes them completely over the top.

Despite their impressive look and dramatic cheese pull, these shrimp bombs are surprisingly simple to make. A quick butterfly, fill, bread, and fry is all it takes to create an appetizer worthy of any gathering.

Serve them hot and fresh for maximum crispness and gooey center. Whether for game night, parties, or a special treat, these shrimp bombs are guaranteed to steal the show.
