Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
To prepare the stuffing, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Butterfly the shrimp by slicing them down the back without cutting all the way through, creating a pocket for the stuffing.
Spoon a small amount of the stuffing mixture into each shrimp, pressing gently to enclose the filling.
Arrange the stuffed shrimp in the prepared baking dish, open side up.
Melt the butter in a small pan and then drizzle it over the stuffed shrimp for added flavor and moisture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and the stuffing is golden brown.
Serve the stuffed shrimp hot as an appetizer or alongside a fresh salad as a main course.
