Ingredients

For the Shrimp:

• 1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
  
  

• 1/2 cup dry white wine
  
  

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and divided
  
  

• Juice from one lemon
  
  

• 3 garlic cloves, minced
  
  

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  
  

• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  
  

For the Topping:

• 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  
  

• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  
  

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  
  

• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  
  

• Fresh parsley, finely chopped

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
   
   

2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Pour the white wine and 2 tablespoons of melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish. Place the dish in the oven for about 10 minutes to allow the sauce to reduce and concentrate its flavors.
   
   

3. Prepare the Shrimp: In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly.
   
   

4. Prepare the Topping: In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, finely grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
   
   

5. Assemble the Dish: Remove the baking dish from the oven. Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the dish. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the shrimp.
   
   

6. Bake: Bake for about 12 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. For an extra crispy topping, switch your oven to broil on high for an additional 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
   
   

7. Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
