A delightful shrimp dish baked with a flavorful garlic herb topping, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the perfect texture for your dish.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Use low heat to prevent the butter from burning and to maintain its flavor.
Add the minced garlic, chopped parsley, paprika, cayenne pepper, and white wine to the melted butter. Stir well to combine.
Stir continuously to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Mix the bread crumbs into the butter mixture until evenly coated.
Panko bread crumbs provide a crispier texture compared to regular ones.
Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in a 13x9-inch baking dish.
Ensure the shrimp are evenly spread out for consistent cooking.
Spread the butter and breadcrumb mixture evenly over the shrimp.
Cover all the shrimp with the topping for maximum flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
Check occasionally to prevent over-browning.
Sprinkle with additional fresh parsley before serving.
Fresh parsley adds a vibrant color and fresh flavor to the dish.
