Garlic Parmesan Roasted Shrimp is a delicious dish that’s relatively simple to prepare.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound (about 450g) large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Shrimp: In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper until the shrimp are evenly coated.
- Arrange on a Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned shrimp out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking.
- Roast in the Oven: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the shrimp for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are pink and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, as shrimp can become rubbery if cooked for too long.

- If you prefer a bit of heat, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the shrimp before roasting.
- Freshly grated Parmesan cheese will give the best flavor, but you can also use pre-grated Parmesan if that’s what you have on hand.
