Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with a little olive oil.
Butterfly the jumbo shrimp by slicing down the back (where they were deveined) deep enough to open them, but not all the way through. Set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a moist stuffing mixture.
Take a small scoop of the stuffing mixture and place it in the butterflied section of each shrimp, pressing gently to keep it in place. Repeat for all the shrimp.
Place the stuffed shrimp in the prepared baking dish, stuffing side up. Drizzle the shrimp lightly with olive oil to help them crisp up during cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and the stuffing is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the shrimp rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a side of lemon wedges and enjoy!
