First preheat oven to 375 degrees.
To begin first clean shrimp by peeling and deveining, then slice down the back so you can fill them. Next clean garlic and chop into very fine pieces and then put the minced garlic into the oil, let this sit. Begin arranging shrimp in cooking dish so that the back side is up so that they can be filled.
Now with a teaspoon take the garlic trying not to get too much oil with it and begin butting garlic into the backs of the shrimp. Salt and pepper to taste. Then sprinkle sherry over entire dish. Now take the 3/4 cup of bread crumbs and sprinkle over each shrimp to cover each shrimp totally.
Take the paprika and sprinkle over the shrimp and also add a few spoonfulls of water around the sides of the dish. Put uncovered dish into oven and cook until shrimp are firm and lightly browned.
