1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, stir together the melted butter, minced garlic, and dry white wine to form a flavorful sauce.
3. Lay the shrimp out in a single layer in a baking dish, ensuring they do not overlap for even cooking.
4. Pour the prepared garlic-wine sauce evenly over the shrimp.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the bread crumbs, finely chopped parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper to create your herbed breadcrumb topping.
6. Evenly distribute the breadcrumb mixture over the sauced shrimp, ensuring they are well-covered.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp have turned a vibrant pink and the breadcrumbs are golden-brown and crispy.
8. Allow the dish to rest for a few minutes before serving hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley for an extra pop of color and freshness.
