  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Mix together round crackers, parsley, saltines, celery salt, and garlic in a large bowl. Add scallops, crabmeat, melted butter, and cooking wine; mix stuffing well.
  • Place a shrimp on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle, careful not to cut through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
  • Stuff each shrimp with a heaping tablespoon stuffing and place back-side up in the prepared baking dish. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water to the bottom of the baking dish to keep shrimp moist during baking.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until shrimp are opaque and stuffing begins to brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
