Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp and Seasoning

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Cheese and Herbs

  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Serving

  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Shrimp Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure the shrimp are evenly coated with the seasoning.
  3. Add Cheese and Parsley: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley into the bowl. Gently toss again, taking care to coat the shrimp evenly without crushing them, allowing the cheese and herb flavors to blend in.
  4. Arrange Shrimp: Spread the shrimp out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. This ensures even roasting and caramelization.
  5. Roast Shrimp: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and have slightly golden edges.
  6. Serve: Remove the shrimp from the oven and serve immediately, accompanied by fresh lemon wedges to add a bright, zesty finish to each bite.

Notes

  • Ensure shrimp are not overcrowded on the baking sheet to allow even cooking.
  • Use fresh garlic and parsley for the best flavor.
  • Tail-on shrimp add flavor and make for an attractive presentation, but you may remove tails if preferred.
  • Adjust seasoning to your taste before roasting.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread or over a light salad for a complete meal.
