Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp Mixture

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the peeled and deveined shrimp with Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, melted butter, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss thoroughly to coat all shrimp evenly with the flavorful mixture.
  3. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the shrimp out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even roasting.
  4. Roast Shrimp: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the shrimp for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, and the Parmesan cheese is golden and slightly crispy.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle the roasted shrimp with fresh chopped parsley for color and freshness, then serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp as they can become rubbery; roasting for 8-10 minutes is sufficient.
  • If you prefer less salt, you can reduce the salt quantity or use low-sodium Parmesan.
  • Serve with crusty bread, pasta, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • Fresh parsley can be substituted with chopped basil or cilantro according to preference.
  • Ensure shrimp are fully peeled and deveined for the best texture and flavor.
