Baked Shrimp

Juicy, oven-baked shrimp that’s fast, easy, and full of flavor, perfect for dinner or a simple appetizer.

📝 Ingredients

• 2 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined (tails intact))
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 Tbsp teriyaki or soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp honey
• 2 tsp seafood seasoning ( i.e. Old Bay or Seafood Magic)
• 1/2 tsp salt ((adjust to taste) )
• 2 medium cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 Tbsp chopped flat leaf parsley and lemon wedges for garnishing

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly grease a 13x9-inch baking dish.
2. 2In a large bowl combine the olive oil, lemon juice, teriyaki or soy sauce, honey, seafood seasoning, salt and garlic. Add 1/2 (1 Tbsp) fresh parsley. Stir well to combine.
3. 3To the bowl, add the shrimp. Top with paprika and stir well until shrimps are evenly coated. Let the shrimp marinate for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
4. 4Transfer the shrimp to the prepared baking dish arranging them in a single layer. Pour any remaining marinade over the shrimp.
5. 5Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become rubbery. Once the shrimp are cooked, remove them from the oven.
6. 6Serve immediately garnished with reserved parsley and lemon wedges on the side.
