Oven Fried Garlic Parmesan Shrimp-
Oven Fried Garlic Parmesan Shrimp is the perfect low carb, gluten-free, ultra tasty snack or appetizer.
Oven Fried Garlic Parmesan Shrimp is a crisp and flavor-filled snack. Fantastic for dipping into a sugar-free cocktail sauce, or making your own sugar-free cocktail sauce.
These are baked in the oven and so easy to make!
My teenage son actually could smell the deliciousness from his room and came upstairs to see what was baking.
Normally I would have to drag him away from his room and computer to come and eat.
But, he said the smell was so amazing that he could not even concentrate, and had to find where it was coming from and eat it.
He said to me “mom, what is that amazing smell and when will you be done photographing it, so I can have it?”
He did eat all of them and claimed that they were very addictive. Next time I will double the batch to factor in the teenage boy appetite, lol.

I've never thought to coat shrimp in Parmesan and now it's all I'll be thinking about!

This looks so yummy, I love "fried" shrimp as it reminds me of being at the beach with my family -- but I love your baked paleo-friendly version! It's a must try!

These are absolutely divine! Whether appetizer or main dish, the flavors and the crunch are so good!

The coating looks and sounds amazing!! My family will love these, and the smell while they're cooking, like you said. Thanks for such a fun recipe.
Aletheia Lange says
I'm a little concerned about using olive oil with such high heat. Can I use avocado oil instead?
Stacey says
Yes, you can use avocado oil.
Keto Kris says
Hi Stacey! And Happy New Year to you and yours!... I have made these several times and they are absolutely delicious!!... Had someone ask me if they could be made using eggs instead of oil... Have you, (Or anyone else) ever tried them that way?
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
Stacey says
Hi Keto Kris, Happy New Year to you! Thank you so much for trying the recipe and your kind words. I have not tried egg instead of oil. It might work okay, but I'm not sure if they will get as crisp.
Ashley says
Hello, this may seem like a silly question...but should I buy raw or cooked shrimp?
Stacey says
Raw.
Phil jacobs says
I make these often and my girlfriend and I love them. Easy, amazing and tasty! Thank you for the recipe, it is one of my go to recipes for shrimp when they are on sale!
Stacey says
Thank you, Phil, for your kind words and trying the recipe. I know what you mean, shrimp has become so expensive!!
Jessica says
Could you use a different kind of flour instead of the almond flour? Would it be a big taste difference if I were to use coconut flour instead since I’m allergic to nuts?
Stacey says
These did not turn out as good with coconut flour for me. But you could sub sunflower seed powder for the almond flour if you like.
Lisa Bove says
Is it the parmesean in a green can or more like something you'd by your in the cheese section?
Stacey says
Hi Lisa, I used a finely grated kind from the refrigerated cheese and deli section but the canned one will work too.
