Baked Stuffed Shrimp

Here's how to make it:

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Pour 2 tablespoons of the olive oil into a 9x13 glass baking dish. Spread the oil along the bottom and set aside.

Cut the shrimp by making a slice along the length of the underside of the shrimp. Remove the vein while doing this. Don't cut all the way through the shrimp - just deep enough to open the shrimp to lay flat.

Saute the garlic and mushrooms in the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until mushrooms have given up all of their liquid. Remove from heat.

Add the bread crumbs or cracker crumbs to the mushrooms in the pan along with parsley, chives, melted butter, salt, butter and cayenne.

Lay the shrimp open and flat in the prepared baking dish, and place even amounts of the crumb mixture on top of each.

Bake the shrimp for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are pink. Transfer to a serving platter. Lightly sprinkle with paprika and serve with lemon wedges.
