Baked Shrimp Scampi

This is another delicious recipe I've adapted from a foodie friend. Yum, and yum, and yum!!!

2 pounds raw shrimp 

3 tablespoons good olive oil

2 tablespoons dry white wine ( I use pinot grigio)

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 stick unsalted butter, melted

6 cloves minced garlic (I put these in the Ninja)

1/4 cup green onions, minced (I put these in the Ninja with the garlic)

3 tablespoons parsley

1/4 teaspoon rosemary

pinch of crushed red pepper flakes

the juice of half a lemon

1 extra-large egg

2/3 cup panko

Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Place the shrimp in an even layer in the baking dish and toss gently with the olive oil, wine, salt, and pepper. Allow to sit at room temperature while you make the butter and garlic mixture.

In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the garlic, green onions, lemon juice, and egg. Spread evenly over the shrimp. Sprinkle with the parsley, red pepper flakes, rosemary, salt, pepper, and panko.

Bake for 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly.  Serve on top of pasta and with a good bread for dipping up the sauce.
