Baked Garlic Lemon Butter Shrimp

"Baked version of garlic lemon butter shrimp - the oven cooks more evenly and slowly, reducing the risk of over cooking the shrimp! Lots of great buttery garlicy sauce for serving over pasta and/or with a crusty bread for sopping."

directions

  • Preheat the oven to 375.
  • Run the shrimp under water just until they come apart - no need to thaw completely.
  • In a food processor, combine butter (cut into a few cubes), garlic, salt, parsley, red pepper flakes and the juice of the lemon. Pulse a few times until the mixture resembles gravel.
  • Toss shrimp in the seasoned butter mix. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake until the shrimp is opaque (10 minutes or so, depending on the size of the shrimp).
  • Serve as is as an appetizer, or over cooked pasta for a main dish.
