• Mix crushed round crackers, parsley, saltines, celery salt, and garlic together in a large bowl. Add scallops, crabmeat, melted butter, and cooking wine; mix stuffing well.
• Place a shrimp on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Repeat with remaining shrimp.

DAN'S BAKED STUFFED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. and butter a large baking dish.
• Make stuffing:
• In a large heavy skillet cook mushrooms, onion, celery, garlic, and parsley in butter over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and liquid mushrooms give off is evaporated. Add scallops or crabmeat and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, 3 minutes. Stir in broth and cracker crumbs and remove skillet from heat.
• Butterfly shrimp by cutting lengthwise along inside curve, almost completely through. Split open shrimp and devein. Mound about 2 tablespoons stuffing onto each shrimp, pressing gently, and put shrimp, stuffed sides up, in baking dish. Melt butter and drizzle over shrimp. Sprinkle shrimp with paprika and bake 20 minutes, or until stuffing is golden.

LIGHTER BAKED STUFFED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, garlic, sour cream, panko, parsley, lemon juice, turmeric, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to mix well.
• Prepare the jumbo shrimp for filling: Butterfly them by running a sharp knife along their curved backs (where the vein runs). Do not cut all the way through -- just far enough so that you can spread the bottom of the shrimp out into a wide circle. You want the tail end to stick up and arc over. The cut side should be split and facing down on your cutting board, almost creating a little lap for the filling.
• Place these butterflied shrimp on your prepared baking sheet. Mound tablespoons of filling onto the laps of each of the jumbo shrimp, pressing gently so that the mixture stays in one clump when you take your hand away. Repeat with remaining shrimp and filling.
• Spray all prepared shrimp with cooking spray and bake until the shrimp are bright pink and the filling is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
• Serve the shrimp with lemon wedges and an additional sprinkling of fresh parsley.

BAKED STUFFED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Move oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 375°Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly spray it with noncook cooking spray.
• In a small skillet or pan add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add in the shallot and saute, stirring frequently, until softened and the edges begin to turn light brown, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds.
• In a medium bowl, add the shallot, crushed Ritz crackers, melted butter, sherry wine, and pepper. Stir until combined.
• Remove the shell, leaving the tail section intact. Hold the shrimp in your hand with the inside of the curve facing down. Make a shallow cut with a paring knife down the back of the shrimp. Use the tip of the knife or a toothpick to remove the vein.
• Then, flip the shrimp, so the inside of the curve is facing up. Run the paring knife along the length of the inside, cutting about ½-inch into the flesh, BUT NOT ALL THE WAY THROUGH! You should now be able to flatten the shrimp with the tail pointing up. Place the shrimp, with this new cut side facing up, on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Use a 1-Tablespoon scoop to scoop the stuffing into a mound on the flat part of the shrimp. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the stuffing is golden brown.
• Serve with lemon wedges, a sprinkle of paprika, and melted butter for dipping, YUM!
