How to Make Almond Crusted Shrimp

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a shallow dish, combine 1 cup slivered almonds, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
3. In a separate shallow dish, whisk 2 large egg whites.
4. Dip each shrimp into the egg white, ensuring it's fully coated.
5. Dredge the egg-dipped shrimp in the almond mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
6. Arrange the coated shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the crust is golden brown and crispy.
8. Alternatively, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
9. Serve immediately with lemon wedges for a zesty finishing touch.
