  • 2 lbs. shrimp, peeled, de-veined and tails off.
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons white wine (or extra lemon juice)
  • 1 spring onion, minced
  • 1/3 cup melted butter, divided
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup Panko crumbs
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • lemon wedges to serve

Heat oven to 425 degrees.  In a well greased baking dish, combine the shrimp, lemon juice, white wine, shallots, 2 teaspoons melted butter.  In a small dish, combine remaining butter, bread crumbs, garlic, cheese, pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons chopped parsley; mix well.  Sprinkle bread crumb mixture over shrimp and bake for 12 minutes or until hot and bubbly and shrimp are just cooked through.  Change setting to broil for a few minutes and serve with lemon wedges.
