    Sticky Oven Baked Shrimp recipe #shrimp #baked

    It only takes minutes to prepare these sticky oven baked shrimp which are coated in a crisp panko breading and smothered in a sweet and sticky glaze that will have you licking your fingers in delight!

    I've always joked that I just enjoy food simply because it is a vessel to eat condiments. Well, this sticky oven baked shrimp recipe will certainly attest to that. The whole point of this recipe is to create a crisp and crunchy canvass to smother with that intoxicatingly sticky sauce! Heck, if it were socially acceptable, I would probably drink it.

    If you love breaded shrimp, you'll love this sticky oven baked shrimp recipe. Tender shrimp are coated in a crisp panko breading and tossed in a sweet and sticky sauce. It is easier to make in the oven than deep-frying, and you don't have all the extra calories from oil. Plus, that sauce...

    Sticky Shrimp Sauce

    A sweet and sticky mixture of melted brown sugar and Franks Hot Sauce quickly simmers on the stove top into a tantalizing glaze that coats every nook and cranny of these Sticky Oven Baked Shrimp. It is the perfect balance of heat and sweet.

    The longer you simmer the sauce the thicker it will get. If it is too runny, simmer it longer. If it gets too thick, add a splash of water to thin it out. I originally got the idea for this glaze from a chicken recipe I found on Pinterest.

    The great thing about this recipe is the lack of specialized equipment needed to make it! You own baking sheets, right? (affiliate link) Simply throw your breaded shrimp on a baking sheet and place it in an oven preheated to 400 degrees.  It is important to have your oven preheated first because shrimp cook fast and you need the high heat to crisp the breading.

    How Long to Bake Shrimp at 400 Degrees

    My oven baked shrimp cook for 10 minutes at 400 degrees. However, cooking time can vary slightly depending on your oven. It is also worth noting that breaded shrimp can take a couple extra minutes to bake compared to unbreaded shrimp.

        The balance of sweet and spicy is the backbone of this recipe so it may be better not to adapt my sauce and just use BBQ sauce with baked shrimp instead.

      I'm considering making this for Christmas, for 24 adults. What size shrimp are pictured here? Does the panko brown nicely in the oven? Is the sauce generous, I don't think I need to 6 X the recipe, do I?
      Thanks!

        I used large shrimp, and I suspect they were 31-35 or 26-30 shrimp. The panko doesn't brown deeply, but rather turn a roasted blond. Most of the color comes from the sauce, which is fairly generous. My golden rule is to always test a recipe before serving it at a gathering, particularly if you are scaling it significantly. It would allow you to see what adjustments need to be made before it's show time!
