📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prep: Preheat Oven to 350˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet (I used a silpat liner).
2
Pat dry shrimp with paper towels then butterfly using a sharp paring knife. Cut about halfway into the shrimp along the inside curved center of the shrimp then fan shrimp open and lay it cut-side-up on baking sheet.
3
Use a butter knife or basting brush to spread 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of mayo onto each shrimp.
4
Season shrimp with garlic powder and black pepper.
Garlic powder (to taste)Black pepper (freshly ground, to taste)
5
Divide the cheese evenly over the shrimp and bake at 350˚F for ⏱️ 10-12 minutes, depending on size of shrimp. Butterflied shrimp cook quickly and if you overcook shrimp, they will toughen so remove 1 shrimp and test for doneness at ⏱️ 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy!
