I only changed a couple of things. I minced the garlic and heated it in the olive oil slightly before brushing it on the bread (I just toasted the slices in my toaster). I also slightly wilted the arugula in the shrimp prior to spooning on the toast. I'd almost consider this more of an appetizer than an open-faced sandwich. Very tasty and I'll make this again.
