  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  5. In a bowl, toss the shrimp with the remaining olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, remaining paprika, and a pinch of salt.
  6. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and spread the shrimp evenly among the vegetables.

Notes

  • Thaw frozen shrimp completely and pat them dry before cooking.
  • Avoid overcooking shrimp to keep them tender and juicy.
  • Other vegetables like asparagus, green beans, mushrooms, or cherry tomatoes work well.
  • Try different seasonings such as Italian herbs, Cajun seasoning, or chili flakes for heat.
  • Add olives and feta for a Mediterranean-style variation.
  • Serve over rice, quinoa, couscous, or pasta for a heartier meal.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat gently in a skillet or briefly in the microwave to avoid overcooking the shrimp.
