Preparation: 15 minutes

Cooking: 15 minutes

Total: 30 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

1 pound of large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup of crushed Ritz crackers
1/4 cup of melted butter
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste
Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers, melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Take each shrimp and make a small slit along the back, being careful not to cut all the way through. This will create a pocket for the stuffing.
Stuff each shrimp with a spoonful of the Ritz cracker mixture, pressing it gently into the pocket.
Place the stuffed shrimp on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are cooked through and the stuffing is golden brown.
Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
