Points to remember

Seafood Freshness:
Ensure that the seafood, such as shrimp or fish, is fresh and odor-free. Avoid using seafood that shows signs of spoilage.
Proper Handling and Storage:
Practice proper handling and storage of raw seafood to prevent cross-contamination. Use separate cutting boards and utensils for seafood and other ingredients.
Thawing Safely:
If using frozen seafood, thaw it in the refrigerator or under cold running water. Avoid thawing at room temperature to prevent bacterial growth.
Allergies:
Be aware of seafood allergies among those who will be consuming the dish. Clearly communicate the presence of seafood to guests, especially if serving to a larger group.
Cleaning Seafood:
Rinse seafood under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture before baking.
