Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs, whole wheat
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Arrange them in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the shrimp.
In a separate bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the shrimp, ensuring that each shrimp is lightly coated.
Lightly spray the breadcrumb topping with cooking spray to help it crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and fully cooked, and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy your healthy WW-friendly meal!
