Marinate the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine the shrimp with pesto sauce, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the shrimp are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Breadcrumb Coating
In a shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs with grated Romano cheese and a drizzle of olive oil until well combined.

Coat the Shrimp
Remove the shrimp from the marinade and shake off excess. Dredge each shrimp in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Oven Roast
Place the coated shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle a little more olive oil on top if desired. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
