Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) large or jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on, if preferred)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko works best, or use gluten-free breadcrumbs)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped (or 1/4 cup onion)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup white wine or seafood stock (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Additional melted butter, for drizzling on top

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the shrimp: Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on if desired. Butterfly each shrimp by slicing down the back without cutting all the way through.
  3. Make the stuffing: In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and sauté garlic and shallots (or onion) until soft. Stir in breadcrumbs, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. If using, add a splash of white wine or seafood stock to moisten.
  4. Assemble the casserole: Grease a baking dish with butter or olive oil. Spread a thin layer of stuffing on the bottom. Arrange the shrimp on top, cut-side down, and spoon the remaining stuffing over the shrimp.
  5. Add finishing touches: Drizzle the casserole with melted butter and sprinkle paprika on top.
  6. Bake: Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and the topping is golden and crispy.
  7.  
  8. Optional broil: For a crispier top, broil for an additional 1–2 minutes at the end of baking.
