Best Shrimp Dish Ever Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by clawson

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 stick butter
1 lemon, sliced
1 pound fresh shrimp
1 package dried Italian seasoning

Steps:

Melt a stick of butter in the pan. Slice one lemon and layer it on top of the butter. Put down fresh shrimp, and sprinkle with one package of dried Italian seasoning. Put in the oven and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Best Shrimp you will EVER taste:)

Tips:

Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes.
Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until it is opaque and firm, but not overcooked, or it will become tough. The best way to cook shrimp is to sauté it in a little olive oil or butter over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for broccoli and carrots, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include zucchini, mushrooms, and bell peppers.
Don't overcook the casserole. The casserole should be baked until the vegetables are tender and the sauce is bubbly, but not overcooked, or the shrimp will become tough.
Serve immediately. This casserole is best served immediately, while it is still hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

This shrimp casserole is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great dish to make for a crowd. The casserole is packed with flavor and is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
