Ingredient List

• 1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 12 oz andouille sausage, sliced into rounds
• 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
• 2 ears of corn, cut into 4 pieces each
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 lemon, sliced, plus juice for seasoning
• 2 tsp Old Bay seasoning
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While it’s heating up, grab a large bowl and toss your potatoes with a tablespoon of olive oil, half the Old Bay seasoning, garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Spread the seasoned potatoes onto a large sheet pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re just starting to soften.
3. While the potatoes are roasting, mix the shrimp, sausage, and corn in the same bowl with the remaining olive oil and Old Bay seasoning. Stir well to ensure everything is nicely coated.
4. Once the potatoes have had their head start, add the shrimp, sausage, and corn to the sheet pan, arranging everything in an even layer.
5. Slide the sheet pan back into the oven and let it roast for another 15-20 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the shrimp are pink and cooked through, and the potatoes are tender.
6. To finish off, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and garnish with chopped parsley to add a pop of color and freshness.
7. Serve your Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil hot and steamy, straight from the oven. Gather your friends and family around the table and enjoy the feast you’ve effortlessly created!
