Ingredients for Baked Shrimp with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce

Extra large raw shrimp – large or jumbo size will work too just adjust bake time slightly (give or take).

Butter – salted or unsalted will work here.

Garlic – use fresh garlic for best results.

Lemon juice – don’t use the bottled stuff here only fresh.

Salt and pepper

Red pepper flakes – if you don’t like heat omit them, if you love heat add extra.

Fresh parsley – not only will this add color but a light herby flavor that pairs well with lemon.
