  • Total Time: 1 hour 18 minutes (including marination)
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

– 4 garlic cloves, minced or pressed

– Β½ teaspoon dried oregano

– Β½ teaspoon dried basil

– Β½ teaspoon Kosher salt

– ΒΌ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

– Zest of 1 lemon

– 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined (frozen shrimp thawed overnight in the fridge can be used)

– Β½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

– 2 tablespoons chopped flat Italian parsley for garnish

Instructions

1-First, in a large glass or plastic bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, oregano, basil, Kosher salt, black pepper, and lemon zest. This mixture creates a marinade that’s full of that classic garlic shrimp vibe, making every bite savory and fresh. Toss in the shrimp and make sure they’re fully coated, then cover and let it chill in the fridge for 1 to 3 hours don’t go over that to keep the texture just right.

2-Next, preheat your oven to 400Β°F to get it nice and hot for roasting. Once that’s ready, add the grated Parmesan to the marinated shrimp and give it a good toss in the bowl. Spread everything evenly on a 13Γ—9-inch baking dish or a large baking sheet so they cook uniformly and get that golden crisp.

3-Roast the shrimp for about 8 minutes until they’re pink, firm, and cooked through that’s when the magic happens with the Parmesan melting into a cheesy coating. Finally, garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and the chopped parsley for a fresh finish. Serve it up hot, and watch how it pairs wonderfully with sides like pasta or veggies.
