Add the butter, Parmesan, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, if using, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to the food processor and pulse to completely combine all ingredients, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper.

Press gently to adhere the seeds to the dough. Flip the dough over so the sesame seeds are facing down, and sprinkle the top with the remaining 3 tablespoons sesame seeds; press to adhere.
