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

- 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!
