Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Butterfly the shrimp by slicing down the back deeply, taking care not to cut all the way through. Flatten them out gently.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Remove the skillet from heat and add the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.
Place the butterflied shrimp on a baking sheet, cut side down, and lightly season with salt and pepper.
Using a spoon, carefully stuff each shrimp with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing slightly to adhere the mixture.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the stuffed shrimp.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, and the stuffing is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over the shrimp.
