Garlic Parmesan Roasted Shrimp
Description
In this recipe, peeled and deveined medium shrimp are placed in a single layer on a baking sheet coated with oil or nonstick spray. The shrimp are tossed with olive oil, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and freshly grated Parmesan, ensuring each piece is well seasoned. Roasting in a 400-degree oven for 6 to 8 minutes cooks the shrimp quickly, turning them pink and firm with a hint of golden edges from the cheese. Finishing with fresh lemon juice adds acidity and brightness that contrasts with the richness of garlic and Parmesan. The dish is garnished with freshly chopped parsley for a mild herbal note. Served immediately, these shrimp can complement rice, pasta, or salads or stand alone as a flavorful seafood appetizer.
