Preparation

Step 1

1. With a rolling pin, flatten bread to 1/8-in. thickness. Usinga 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter, cut out a circle from each slice. (Save scraps for another use.) Spritz both sides of circles with butter-flavored spray. Press into ungreased
miniature muffin cups. Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes or
until lightly browned.

2. In a large bowl, combine the cheese, chilies, diced shrimp
and onion; spoon into cups. Top with whole shrimp and
paprika. Broil 5-6 in. from the heat for 2-4 minutes or until
golden brown. Serve immediately
