By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh or frozen peeled shrimp (21 to 25 count)
• 6 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons white wine or dry vermouth
• 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• zest of one lemon
• 1 tablespoon hot sauce such as Shiracha
• 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 1 cup finely grated Parmigiano Reggiano
• 2 egg whites
• olive oil spray

Preparation

Step 1

. Take 3 gallon-size zipper bags. In each bag, put 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon wine, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/3 teaspoon pepper. Add the crushed garlic to one bag, the lemon zest to another, and the hot sauce to the third. Add a portion of shrimp to each bag, massage each bag to evenly distribute the marinade, then refrigerate for about two hours.
3. Preheat the oven to 425° F. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray (or spread with a thin film of olive oil).In a bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and the Parmigiano Reggiano. In another bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until foamy.
4. Drain the bags of shrimp and discard the marinades. One by one, dip the shrimp into the egg white, and then roll into the crumb mixture. Press down on the shrimp to make the crumbs adhere, then place on the oiled baking sheet. Repeat with all the shrimp.
5. Spray the shrimp with olive oil spray, then bake in the hot oven for about 10 minutes until golden brown with crisp edges. Serve while hot.
