Roasted Shrimp With Bread Crumbs image

Mark Bittman brought this recipe to The Times as part of a 2013 shrimp roundup. This especially easy dish cooks them quickly, under high heat and a showering of lemon, olive oil and bread crumbs for brightness paired with comfort. Be sure not to overcook the shrimp. As Mr. Bittman notes, "For the most part, the shrimp will tell you when they're done." Simply make sure they're pink, and pair alongside a salad or over rice.
