Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a lightly greased wire rack.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels to ensure the coating adheres properly.
In a shallow bowl, mix the flour with half of the salt and black pepper.
In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
In a third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, the remaining salt, and black pepper.
Working in batches, dredge each shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Dip each flour-coated shrimp into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
Transfer the shrimp to the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
Place the coated shrimp onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving space between each piece.
Lightly spray the shrimp with olive oil spray to encourage browning and crispness during baking.
Bake the shrimp for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or over rice for a larger meal.
