A quick and easy sheet pan meal featuring succulent shrimp and tender broccoli, seasoned with garlic and lemon for a flavorful, healthy dinner.
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 cups broccoli florets
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, lemon zest, lemon juice, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir well to create the marinade.
Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the marinade.
Spread the broccoli in a single layer on a large sheet pan.
Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast the broccoli for 8 minutes.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the shrimp, spreading them evenly among the broccoli.
Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for an additional 7 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through and the broccoli is tender.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
