Our parmesan Baked Shrimp come out utterly scrumptious every single time!
This recipe is awesome for a quick dinner idea, but it’s FABULOUS for parties because it’s so easy and guests RAVE about how good they are!

All you need is 10 minutes!

I’ve served these shrimp as a main course, but also as an appetizer.

Our guests enjoyed using toothpicks to grab a few while chatting and drinking their cocktails/mocktails.

A chef friend of mine once told me:

“Cooking is easy. All you have to do is make sure all of the ingredients taste good. If they all taste good, then your meal will taste good.”

And it’s true!

You’ll only need a handful of basic ingredients, one pan, and ten minutes to create a delicious meal for dinner tonight or meal prep for your week ahead.

Since you’re only using one pan, clean-up is easy too!

For Meal Prep:

Place your leftovers into glass food prep containers in the fridge to reheat for future meals throughout the week.

I would recommend storing this dish in the fridge for 2 days max.
