KITTENCAL'S BAKED JUMBO LEMON-GARLIC PARMESAN SHRIMP



Kittencal's Baked Jumbo Lemon-Garlic Parmesan Shrimp image

You won't find this recipe anywhere else, I developed this using jumbo shrimp and I would strongly advise to use only very large or jumbo for this and leave the tails intact, depending on the size and amount of the shrimp used a small amount of breadcrumb mixture might be left over --- I have listed the cayenne pepper as only optional you may adjust amount to suit heat level or omit, I like to add it in for some heat :)

Time 40m

Yield 24-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups dry breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (can use 1 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (can use more salt if desired) or 1/2 teaspoon white salt (can use more salt if desired)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper or 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional or to taste)
6 tablespoons melted butter, slightly cooled
2 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 large fresh garlic cloves (very finely minced, about 1 tablespoon, must be very finely minced or use 1 teaspoon garlic powder)
24 -30 jumbo fresh shrimp (peeled and deveined leaving tails intact)
lemon wedge

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish combine the breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, garlic powder, seasoned salt and black pepper; set aside.
  • In a large bowl whisk together melted butter with 2 tablespoons oil, fresh lemon juice and fresh garlic.
  • Add in shrimp and toss to coat with the melted butter mixture; allow to sit out at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
  • Lighty grease a jelly-roll pan.
  • Remove the shrimp from the butter mixture allowing any excess to drip off the shrimp, then lightly coat both sides in the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Place the coated shrimp onto the pan but not touching each other.
  • Set oven to 425 degrees (set oven to second-lowest rack).
  • Bake for about 10 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through (baking times will vary for size of shrimp).
  • Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest shrimp possible. Fresh shrimp should have a firm texture and a slightly briny smell. Avoid shrimp that is slimy or has a strong fishy odor.
  • Use a variety of cooking methods. Baking, grilling, sautéing, and steaming are all great ways to cook shrimp. Experiment with different methods to find the one that you like best.
  • Don't overcook shrimp. Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important to watch it carefully to avoid overcooking. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Season shrimp simply. Shrimp has a delicate flavor, so it's best to season it simply with salt, pepper, and a few other herbs and spices. Avoid using too many strong flavors that will overwhelm the shrimp.
  • Serve shrimp immediately. Shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve its flavor and texture.
