Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined (fresh or thawed frozen, wild-caught preferred)
  • 1 pound baby red potatoes, halved
  • 2 ears corn on the cob, cut into thirds (fresh or frozen)
  • 8 ounces andouille sausage, sliced (optional but highly recommended)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 fresh lemon
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Place halved baby red potatoes and corn pieces on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Roast for 20 minutes.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss peeled shrimp and sliced andouille sausage with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well coated.
  4. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and scatter the shrimp and sausage among the roasted potatoes and corn. Return to oven and roast for an additional 8-10 minutes, until shrimp turn pink and slightly crispy.
  5. Remove pan from oven, drizzle melted butter and fresh lemon juice over the top, and gently toss everything together with tongs to mix flavors.
  6. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish for garnish and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure crispiness. Toss ingredients halfway through cooking for even browning. Watch shrimp closely during the last 8-10 minutes to avoid rubbery texture. Adding butter and lemon after cooking enhances flavor without steaming shrimp. For gluten-free, verify sausage ingredients. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheat best in oven at 375°F for 10 minutes.
