Baked Italian shrimp variations

This recipe is wonderful as it is, but here are some ways to change it up if you’d like to.

• Shrimp- I use medium-large size shrimp with the tails on for this recipe. Frozen and thawed or fresh shrimp of any size will work. Feel free to take the tails off if you prefer.
• Seasoning- a dry Italian seasoning packet or zesty Italian seasoning packet would both be great here. If you’d like to add some spice, add in some crushed red pepper flakes.
• Serving- Serve this alone as an appetizer or over pasta as an entree.
