2 tablespoons breadcrumbs (optional, for extra crunch)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Lemon wedges, for serving
Notes
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Prepare the Shrimp: Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Place them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Make the Garlic Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well until the mixture is evenly combined.
Coat the Shrimp: Use a spoon or brush to evenly coat the shrimp with the garlic butter mixture. Be generous to ensure every shrimp is well-covered.
Roast the Shrimp: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque with a slightly crispy top.
Garnish and Serve: Remove the shrimp from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges for a bright, tangy finish.
