How to make Baked Garlic Parmesan Shrimp

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika.

Step 3: Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the baking dish.

Step 4: In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the shrimp.

Step 5: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the topping is golden and bubbly.

Step 6: Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
