Ingredients

• 1 pound Large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 5 cloves Garlic (finely minced)
• 1 Shallot (finely minced)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh tarragon (finely chopped)
• 1 cup Fresh breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Dry white wine
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 pinch Pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and shallot, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the parsley, tarragon, salt, black pepper, and cayenne, then remove the skillet from heat.

Step 4

Add the fresh breadcrumbs into the butter mixture, stirring to coat evenly.

Step 5

Add the dry white wine and lemon juice. Stir until the mixture has a uniform consistency.

Step 6

Arrange the peeled and deveined shrimp in a single layer in a shallow baking dish.

Step 7

Spread the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the shrimp to completely cover them.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Pair with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete dish.
