Tips for Success
Here are a few tips for making the best parmesan garlic shrimp.
- Thaw and dry frozen shrimp. Frozen shrimp works great in this recipe, just make sure to thaw it completely first and then pat dry with a paper towel.
- Adjust time for different shrimp sizes. I prefer large shrimp in this recipe but if you use smaller or larger shrimp, you’ll need to adjust the cook time accordingly.
- Don’t overbake the shrimp. Shrimp cooks quickly, so this dish is ready in as little as 12 minutes. The shrimp should be pink and firm when pulled from the oven.
Serving Suggestions
Garlic parmesan shrimp can be enjoyed on its own, perhaps with a simple side salad or Caesar salad. It can also be served on crostini as an appetizer, or for a more complete meal, it’s great mixed with pasta and some crusty Dutch oven bread to mop up that delicious garlicky oil!
Proper Storage
- Fridge. Store leftover garlic parmesan shrimp in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Reheat. Reheat quickly in the microwave. Keep in mind that you want to reheat just until hot to avoid overcooking the shrimp.
