I just found this recipe and while I haven't tried it yet I am sure going to, it sounds great! Sharing so the rest of you can give it a try, hope you like it. Copied it so the comments aren't mine.
This Garlic Baked Shrimp Recipe is a perfect alternative to traditional Shrimp Scampi Recipes, which are typically drenched in butter and/or oil. My version still has the flavors you love, but each serving is just 4 Points +. Each bite packs tons of delicious flavor and a hint of crunch. But the best part is that this baked shrimp recipe can be prepared quickly, easily and with very little prep and few ingredients. So it’s a great Weight Watchers dinner idea when you need something on the table – fast! Even my husband, who’s not really a big fan of shrimp, enjoyed this dish. Definitely something that I’ll make again soon!

Ingredients
1lb fresh, raw shrimp, deveined, peeled and tails removed
2 tbsp light butter, melted
Juice from ½ a lemon
2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp paprika

4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup corn flakes cereal, crushed
Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In a medium sized bowl, combine shrimp, lemon juice, garlic, paprika and salt & pepper. Pour into a small baking dish.
In another bowl, combine cornflakes, butter, Parmesan cheese, lemon zest and parsley until it reaches a course, mealy consistency – just enough to evenly blend the ingredients.
Sprinkle cornflakes mixture over shrimp. Transfer to oven and bake until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
