The garlic and sherry flavored shrimp DeJonghe is a casserole dish made with whole peeled shrimps blanketed in herbed breadcrumbs which are broiled until golden brown. This dish is often said to be the oldest specialty of Chicagoan cuisine, having been created in the 1920s at DeJonghe's hotel and restaurant on Chicago's Monroe Street.

The recipe has been attributed either to the owners, Belgian immigrants Henri, Pierre, and Charles DeJonghe, or to their chef, Emil Zehr. Today, shrimp DeJonghe can be found at a variety of Chicagoan restaurants, ranging from casual taverns and eateries to seafood spots and even steakhouses.
