How to Make Baked Shrimp Scampi

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Peel, devein, and butterfly 1 pound of large shrimp, leaving tails on.
3. In a large bowl, toss shrimp with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 cup dry white wine, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside.
4. While shrimp marinates, prepare the garlic butter topping. In a medium bowl, mash together 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, zest of 1 lemon, juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 large egg yolk, 1/4 cup panko bread crumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
5. Arrange shrimp in a single layer, cut-side down, in a 14-inch oval gratin dish, tails curling towards the center.
6. Pour remaining marinade over shrimp.
7. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the shrimp.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until shrimp is pink and opaque and the topping is golden brown and bubbly.
9. For extra browning, broil for 1 minute, watching carefully to prevent burning.
10. Serve immediately with lemon wedges, crusty bread, and your favorite pasta.
