Marinate the Shrimp<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a bowl, combine the shrimp with garlic, oyster sauce, smoked paprika, hot sauce, black pepper, and salt. Toss well to coat evenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour to allow the flavors to develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Prepare the Dough<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the crescent dough rolled into its rectangular shape. Slice the dough in half lengthwise, then roll each half into a 5 \u00d7 9 inch rectangle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cut the dough into 12 strips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Wrap the Shrimp<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place one shrimp on each dough strip. Fold the ends of the dough over the shrimp and roll it up gently. Place each roll seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Brush and Bake<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds over them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bake in a preheated oven at 400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C) for about 18\u201320 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Prepare the Dipping Sauce<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, rice vinegar, and hot sauce until smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6. Serve<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Serve the garlic shrimp rolls warm with the dipping sauce on the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Nutrition (Approximate per serving)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Calories: ~180 kcal<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Protein: ~10 g<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#x1f4a1; Recipe Tip<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For extra flavor, sprinkle a little chopped green onions or parsley over the shrimp rolls just before serving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These Garlic Shrimp in a Blanket are a delicious appetizer featuring juicy marinated shrimp wrapped in flaky crescent dough and baked until golden and crispy.
