Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs large shrimp (21-25 count), peeled and deveined
  • 8 oz andouille sausage (or smoked kielbasa), sliced into rounds
  • 1 lb baby red or yellow potatoes, halved
  • 2 ears corn on the cob, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with foil.

  2. 2

    Toss 1 lb halved baby red or yellow potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 teaspoon of the Old Bay seasoning. Spread on the sheet pan in a single layer. Roast for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, mix the melted 4 tbsp unsalted butter with 4 minced garlic cloves and the remaining Old Bay seasoning.

  4. 4

    Remove the pan from the oven. Add 8 oz sliced into rounds andouille sausage (or smoked kielbasa) and 2 ears cut into 2-inch pieces corn on the cob, then pour half the butter mixture over everything and toss to coat.

  5. 5

    Return to the oven and roast for 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add 1.5 lbs peeled and deveined large shrimp (21-25 count) to the pan and pour the remaining butter mixture over them. Roast until the shrimp are pink, curled, and opaque and have reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 6 to 8 more minutes.

Can I use frozen shrimp instead of shrimp in Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil?

Yes; most shrimp sold as fresh were frozen once already. Thaw them under cold running water for about ten minutes and pat them very dry so they sear instead of steaming. As written, the entry for Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil uses 1.5 lbs large shrimp (21-25 count), peeled and deveined.

Is Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil gluten-free?
