Baked Shrimp Scampi with bread crumbs is a fancy dish and takes only 12 minutes to prepare. Juicy, tender shrimp coated with crispy, buttery bread crumbs and cooked with plenty of lemon juice, Parmesan cheese and garlic. Crispy baked shrimp scampi is a must-try dish for shrimp lovers!
I recommend to serve this shrimp with steamed broccoli or my favorite Instant pot Jasmine rice.
Serve baked shrimp scampi as meal with pasta, rice, steamed veggies or salad or as an appetizer. It is such an impressive dish to serve to friends or guests. The best part about it is that you can’t go wrong with it. It is super easy to make even for kitchen newbies.
