BUTTERFLIED SHRIMP (BAKED)

Steps:

• HEAT OVEN TO 400F/204C. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt butter for 30 seconds in a small bowl in the Microwave on High.
• TOAST CRUMBS and SEASON: Spread Panko or bread crumbs evenly on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes. Watch them carefully and stir halfway through, making sure they don't burn. Remove from the oven and transfer to shallow dish to cool. Add garlic and seasonings to bread crumbs and stir to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
• INCREASE OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 500F/260C. Line baking sheet with tin foil and spray with peanut oil or olive oil.
• BUTTERFLY SHRIMP: Here's a video on how to peel, devein and butterfly shrimp. Using a sharp paring knife, make a deep slice (but not all the way through) along the top of each shrimp where the black vein was (the humped part). Turn the shrimp over and make 3 small shallow slits horizontally across the shrimp (1/2 inch/1.27 cm apart) to help prevent the shrimp from curling during cooking. Pat dry with a paper towel (don't skip this step!).
• BREAD ONE SIDE OF SHRIMP: Dip each shrimp in melted butter and then dredge butterflied open side in bread crumbs, pressing so it sticks. Place shrimp, bread crumb side up, in foil-lined pan in a single layer. Repeat with all shrimp. Drizzle shrimp with a little more of melted butter. (hmm, I know what you're thinking...more butter?... go for it or skip it - up to you - I go for it). At this point, you can let the shrimp sit for an hour or so until you're ready to bake them.
• BAKE AND SERVE: Bake in center of oven for 5 minutes (for jumbo shrimp) and 4 minutes (for large shrimp) until just cooked through. Don't over cook. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, lemon wedges or cocktail sauce. Sprinkle on additional chopped parsley for color.
