Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, melted butter, fresh orange juice, fresh lime juice, and minced garlic. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the marinade. Let the shrimp marinate for 10 minutes.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the marinated shrimp and toss again to ensure even seasoning.
Transfer the shrimp and the marinade to the prepared baking dish. Spread them out in a single layer for even cooking.
Sprinkle the panko bread crumbs evenly over the shrimp to create a crispy topping.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. If desired, broil on high for an additional 2 minutes to brown the breadcrumbs.
Remove the dish from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the Florida Shrimp Bake hot with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
