Creating Garlic Parmesan Roasted Shrimp is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for a delightful meal:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting.
2. Prepare the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the peeled and deveined shrimp with the melted butter, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
