Soothingly textured on the outside and tender on the inside, that’s baked Garlic Parmesan Shrimp for you all! They have this creamy, juicy coating of garlic and cheese and the lemony tang from the generous drizzle of lemon. Anybody who loves shrimp HAS to try this easy shrimp recipe first thing!

Shrimps are just perfect ingredients to make up a quick brunch, dinner or snack any day.

Hence, I  keep making the main course like Shrimp Chow Mein, Garlic Shrimp Pasta Aglio E Olio, Garlic Butter Shrimp Rice etc.

But, for light brunch and supper, I think I have fallen in love with this low carb recipe of oven roasted shrimp which has a beautiful flavour of garlic and richness of parmesan cheese.

The first time I made them, these shrimps turned out uber delish.

They had this pleasing crunch and the minute I dunked them with ranch sauce, they went all tender and gooey. 

Having thoroughly loved this shrimp recipe, I had to share it with you all!
