Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds shrimp shelled, deveined, and tail off
  • 1 stick butter softened
  • 2-3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Parsley
  • pinch coarse salt

  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350*
  2. Arrange shrimp in a single layer in an oven safe dish.
  3. In a small bowl. Mix together butter, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spread the butter mixture on the shrimp (I used my hands for this, as it was impossible to use a spatula to spread it evenly)
  5. Bake for approximately 15 minutes, until shrimp is nice and pink.
  6. Meanwhile, make your crust, with 1 cup of crushed homemade garlic croutons and 1/2 cup of grated parmesan.
  7. Remove shrimp from oven, change oven to high broil setting.
  8. Coat shrimp in crust mixture. Broil until the coating turns a nice golden brown.
  9. Serve your delicious and pretty garlic parmesan crusted baked shrimp scampi with pride! It's so good you'll be searching for seconds!
