"Making baked shrimp scampi is simple using garlic, butter, bread crumbs, lemon juice, and oregano. Use your favorite size shrimp and just go by weight. Be sure the shrimp lies in one layer. Using a bread with a dense crumb (artisan bread as opposed to traditional white sandwich bread) gives the best result. This is incredibly easy and fast using few ingredients. Feel free to double the recipe using a larger pan...."
