Preparation
Preheat broiler.
Shell shrimp, leaving the tails on if desired. With a sharp knife, cut along the back of each shrimp, slicing halfway through, and press open. Toss shrimp with 2 tsp (10 ml) of the sherry.
Melt 1 tbsp (15 ml) of the butter in a skillet and sauté shrimp over medium-high heat, stirring just until barely pink. Do not overcook. Remove from heat and distribute evenly in 4 small gratin dishes; set aside.
Melt remaining butter in the skillet. Add shallot and flour, stirring to blend. Whisk in milk, cream, remaining sherry, tomato, parsley and salt. Cook over medium-high heat until sauce thickens.
Spoon over shrimp and top each dish with shredded Swiss cheese. Broil for 3 to 5 min or until bubbly and lightly golden. Serve immediately.
