Preheat the oven to 350 F and coat a shallow baking dish with cooking spray.

Prepare shrimp by slicing along the outside curve, peeling all but the tail, deveining, and making another deep cut along the inside curve.

Combine lemon juice, parsley, and ginger in a small bowl. Pour half into a shallow dish with the shrimp, toss to coat, and marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature, reserving the rest.
