Baked Shrimp Scampi

From McGough's Recipes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 tbsp. chopped parsley, divided
  • 2 tbsp. melted butter
  • 2 tbsp. white wine
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 c. panko bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 lb. cooked angel hair pasta, for serving
  • Sliced crusty bread, toasted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. In a large baking dish, combine shrimp, 2 tablespoons parsley, butter, white wine, lemon juice and zest, shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix panko with olive oil and remaining tablespoon parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle panko mixture over shrimp. Bake until the shrimp is cooked through and bread crumbs are golden and crispy, 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the shrimp.
  3. Serve warm shrimp over pasta with a squeeze of lemon and bread on the side. (The bread is perfect for dunking in all the buttery juices!)
