Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper (optional).
- Toss the asparagus to coat evenly.

- Mix well to ensure the shrimp are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Arrange the seasoned shrimps on top of the asparagus in a single layer.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the shrimps and asparagus.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimps are opaque and cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the dish.

Tips:
- Ensure your asparagus is trimmed properly by snapping off the woody ends.
- For even cooking, spread the asparagus and shrimps in a single layer on the pan.
- If you prefer a bit more heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the paprika.
- Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor and meltability.
- Feel free to add a squeeze of lemon juice over the dish after baking for a fresh, zesty finish.
And there you have it - a simple yet elegant dish that brings together the best of land and sea.
