Instructions
Creating Garlic Parmesan Roasted Shrimp can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine peeled and deveined shrimp, melted butter, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix well to coat all the shrimp evenly.
3. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the shrimp mixture and stir gently until the shrimp are coated.
4. Arrange Shrimp: Spread the shrimp mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Roasting: Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. This typically takes around 10-12 minutes.
6. Broil (Optional): For an extra golden finish, you can broil them for an additional 1-2 minutes. Keep a close watch to prevent burning.
7. Garnish: Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped parsley on top before serving.
8. Serve: Serve immediately with lemon wedges for an added zing if desired.
