Baked shrimp is a simple and quick second course to prepare.
Today there is an orange alert, and for the moment here it has rained without much damage, while in the West there have been floods. Hopefully, it will improve.
In the morning, I went out to stock up on vegetables and fruits because they were finished and then returned home.
I took care of some household chores and then dedicated myself to preparing lunch.
I made spaghetti with tomato sauce and these baked shrimps as a second course.
It’s an inviting and tasty second course. I prepared a sauce with chopped parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper, which I used to season the shrimp and then baked them.
They are delicious and worth making often.
It is also suitable to serve as an appetizer for important events or holidays.

Steps for Baked Shrimp
Clean the shrimp: remove the legs leaving the head and tail.
With a small knife, cut along the back of the shrimp and remove the dark vein by gently pulling it out with a toothpick.
Prepare the sauce: in a bowl, pour the chopped parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir with a spoon.
Place the prawns in a baking dish, pour the sauce over the top.
Preheat the oven to 392°F in static mode and cook the shrimp for about 12 minutes.
Serve hot immediately.
