ingredients

2 lbs cooked shelled large shrimp (15 to 25)
1 (6 ounce) package chicken flavor stuffing mix
1 large egg, beaten
¹⁄₂ cup butter, melted
1 garlic clove, minced
chopped parsley

directions

Preheat oven to 475°F Butter a large shallow baking dish.
Cut shrimp with a sharp knife along the rounded edge of back, almost all the way through.
Prepare stuffing mix as directed on package. Dip shrimp in beaten egg. Place a rounded teaspoonful of stuffing between the cut edges of the shrimp; press shrimp and stuffing firmly together. Arrange stuffed shrimp in prepared baking dish.
Mix melted butter and garlic in a small bowl. Brush shrimp with butter mixture.
Bake until stuffing is lightly browned and shrimp is heated through, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
