1 eggplant, halved lengthwise
1/2 cup olive oil, divided
salt and pepper to taste
8 medium shrimp - peeled, deveined and chopped
1/8 cup chopped fresh basil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Scoop out the flesh of the eggplant, chop, and reserve. Coat shells with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper; set aside.

Transfer to a large bowl, and mix in the bread crumbs and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. If mixture is dry, stir in more olive oil. Stuff mixture into eggplant shells, and sprinkle top with remaining Parmesan cheese.
