1/4 tsp. dried dill
Salt and black pepper; to taste
2 Tbsp. fresh bread crumbs
1 Tbsp. shredded Parmesan
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. paprika
10 – 12 extra-large shrimp, peeled, tails left on, and deveined (about 8 oz.)

Preheat broiler with oven rack 6-8 inches from the heating element.

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat or in a bowl in the microwave. Stir in lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt, and pepper. Let stand off heat to steep.

Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan, oregano, and paprika in a small bowl; set aside
