- 1 pound Shrimp (Fresh or frozen; ensure they are completely thawed and patted dry for optimal crispiness.)
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese (Substitute with Grana Padano or Pecorino Romano if needed.)
- 4 cloves Garlic (Fresh minced garlic for best flavor.)
- 4 tablespoons Butter (Can be replaced with more olive oil for a dairy-free version.)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Enhances flavor; avocado oil is an excellent substitute.)
- 1 teaspoon Paprika (Smoky paprika can be a delightful alternative.)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (Can swap for chopped chives or basil if preferred.)
- 1 juice of Lemon (Use fresh lemon juice and wedges for maximum flavor.)
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, melted butter, olive oil, paprika, and chopped parsley. Stir well.
- Toss the thawed and patted-dry shrimp in the bowl with the garlic-Parmesan mixture, ensuring each shrimp is evenly coated.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the coated shrimp in a single layer.
- Roast the shrimp for about 10 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
- Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the roasted shrimp before serving.
