Baked Shrimp in Garlic Butter Sauce

How to Make Garlic Butter Baked Shrimp

Preheat the oven
Set it to 430°F (220°C). Place the wine and a few tablespoons of butter in your baking dish, then bake for 10 minutes to deepen the flavors.

Season the shrimp
Toss shrimp with lemon juice, garlic, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Don’t worry if the butter firms up—it’ll melt beautifully while baking.

Prepare the topping
Combine panko, parmesan, olive oil, and salt in a small bowl.

Layer and bake
Take the dish out of the oven, arrange the shrimp in a single layer, and evenly sprinkle the breadcrumb topping over them.

Bake and broil
Bake for 12 minutes, then broil for 1–2 minutes until golden and crisp.

Serve immediately
Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges. Don’t forget crusty bread or pasta to soak up the delicious sauce!

Tips for Success

No wine? Substitute with chicken broth for a rich, savory alternative.

Panko breadcrumbs give a crispier texture compared to regular breadcrumbs.

Shrimp cook quickly—keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.

Love garlic? Feel free to add an extra clove or two.

Enjoy your effortlessly elegant shrimp dish!
