A simple, quick recipe for cooking shrimp and broccoli together on one sheet pan using a rich garlic butter sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to create the sauce.
  3. Place the broccoli florets on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle half of the garlic butter mixture over the broccoli and toss to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the shrimp on the other side of the baking sheet. Pour the remaining garlic butter mixture over the shrimp and toss gently to coat.
  5. Arrange the shrimp and broccoli in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The shrimp should be pink and opaque, and the broccoli should be tender-crisp.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and broccoli.
  8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving immediately.

Notes

  • For crispier broccoli, you can roast the broccoli alone for 5 minutes before adding the shrimp to the pan.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to allow for proper roasting rather than steaming.
  • If your shrimp are very large, check for doneness closer to the 12-minute mark.
