Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds 15/20 count shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
2 tablespoons avocado or canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 ounces lump crab meat
2/3 cup grated parmesan, separated
1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup green onions, sliced
1 large egg, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons diced pimientos, drained
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
Zest and juice of a lemon

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F and have ready a rimmed baking sheet lined with either parchment paper or aluminum foil.

Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. Then, working with one shrimp at a time, lay it back-side down (a.k.a. leg-side up). Use a paring knife to make a small incision down the shrimp, from the start of the tail, cutting toward the head of the shrimp. Continue doing this until the shrimp is butterflied and can lay flat. Do your best not to cut all the way through the body of the shrimp.

Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl, drizzle with oil, sprinkle evenly with the salt and pepper, and very gently toss to coat. Transfer to the baking sheet and set aside.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the crab, 1/3 cup of the parmesan cheese, the plain breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, green onions, beaten egg, pimiento peppers, chopped parsley, Old Bay seasoning, lemon zest, and juice. Gently, fold the mixture together until well combined.

Add tablespoon-sized spoonfuls of the crab mixture on top of each shrimp, and bring up the tail, tucking it gently into the stuffing.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are completely opaque and pink in color. Allow to cool slightly, serve and enjoy!
