Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease your baking dish lightly with unsalted butter.
  2. Mix together melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, and lemon juice in a medium bowl until well combined.
  3. Toss the jumbo shrimp in the garlic butter mixture until evenly coated, then arrange in a single layer in the baking dish.

  5. Bake for approximately 12 minutes until the shrimp are opaque and firm to the touch.
