A quick and easy sheet pan meal featuring succulent shrimp and tender asparagus, seasoned with garlic and lemon for a bright, flavorful dinner.
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix well.
Add the shrimp and asparagus pieces to the bowl and toss until everything is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the shrimp and asparagus in a single layer on a large sheet pan.
Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the shrimp and asparagus.
