Making Panko Shrimp is straightforward if you follow these clear steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until well coated.
3. Set Up Dipping Stations: In one bowl, place the flour. In a second bowl, whisk the eggs until well blended. In a third bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs.
4. Coat the Shrimp:
– First, dip each shrimp in flour, shaking off any excess.
– Next, dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
– Finally, coat the shrimp in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated shrimp on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other.
6. Add Oil: Lightly spray the shrimp with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil to help them crisp up.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. The shrimp should be opaque and bounce back when gently pressed.
8. Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving with lemon wedges, if desired.
