1. Prepare the shrimp: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the shrimp dry and arrange them in a glass baking dish, tails pointing outward.
2. Make the garlic butter: Mix melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Pour evenly over the shrimp.
3. Prepare the crispy topping: In a bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and chopped parsley.
4. Top the shrimp: Spoon the breadcrumb mixture generously over each shrimp, gently pressing it down so it sticks.
5. Bake until golden: Bake uncovered for 10–12 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the topping turns lightly golden.
6. Get that crispy finish: Broil for 1–2 minutes until the breadcrumb crust becomes deeply golden and crunchy. Watch closely to prevent burning!
7. Serve like the photo: Sprinkle with extra parsley and spoon the warm garlic butter sauce around the shrimp. Serve immediately while the topping is crispy and the shrimp are tender. So dang good!
