Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Prepare Shrimp: In a large mixing bowl, toss the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper until all the shrimp are evenly coated.
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the shrimp in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the shrimp are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting.
Roast Shrimp: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 8-10 minutes or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and cooked through. Stir halfway through for even cooking.
Finish with Lemon and Parsley: Once the shrimp are done, remove them from the oven and immediately drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for extra freshness.
Serve: Serve the garlic Parmesan roasted shrimp hot, with extra lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy with pasta, rice, or as a delicious appetizer!
