I love to make this shrimp dish when we’re hunting because it’s so easy and requires no clean-up. In fact, I just made it for one of our duck hunting trips this fall.
It only takes 4 ingredients – and you can tell why this is so good, I’m using a stick of butter per pan. Here’s what you need:
Note I’m making 2 pans tonight which is enough for about 5 people (and double my normal recipe below), if you have less you can cut it in half. I like to use one pan for each bag of shrimp to make sure they aren’t too crowded and have room to hang out in the seasoned butter.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter in the pan in the oven. I’m using a foil pan so there is no clean-up.
Thinly slice the lemon and arrange evenly on the bottom of the pan.
Next lay the shrimp on top of the lemons. I used raw, peeled and deveined shrimp. Sprinkle with one package of Good Seasons Italian or Zesty Italian dressing.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Don’t be afraid to eat these with your fingers or ashamed to lick the butter off them when you’re done. For some reason, every time I make this there are no leftovers.
Enjoy!
- 1 stick butter
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- 1 – 12 oz bag raw peeled and deveined shrimp
- 1 pkg dried Italian (or Zesty Italian) seasoning, like Good Seasons
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt butter in 9x13 baking pan in the oven.
- Top the melted butter with sliced lemon. Then add the shrimp and sprinkle with the dried Italian seasoning.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
can you use liquid Italian Dressing instead of dried Italian Dressing Mix?
Absolutely! I would cut down on the butter a little bit because the dressing will have oil in it. The dressing won’t stick to the shrimp quite the same way as a dry mix, just make sure to dip it in the juices or pour them over the top of the shrimp.
