Step-by-Step Instructions for Jumbo Shrimp Parmesan
  1. Start by peeling and deveining the jumbo shrimp. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. Organize your breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko bread crumbs.
  3. Dredge the shrimp in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat in panko bread crumbs until well covered.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  5. Layer fried shrimp in a baking dish, cover with marinara sauce, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melting and bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly, garnish with basil, and serve hot alongside pasta or salad.
