Ingredients

Scale

Marinade and Shrimp

  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 3 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

Vegetables

  • 2 yellow onions, peeled and cut into wedges
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 red bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Marinade: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC). In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of extra-virgin olive oil, grated garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Season the mixture with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Toss the peeled and deveined shrimp into this marinade and set aside to absorb the flavors while you prepare the vegetables.
  2. Prepare and Roast Vegetables: On a rimmed half sheet pan, drizzle a little olive oil over the yellow onion wedges, broccoli florets, and thinly sliced red bell peppers. Season them with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Spread the veggies out evenly in a single layer to ensure even roasting. Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast the vegetables for 20 minutes until they begin to soften and develop a slight caramelization.
  3. Add Shrimp and Continue Roasting: Remove the pan from the oven and pour the marinated shrimp along with all the marinade over the roasted vegetables. Toss gently to coat the shrimp and vegetables evenly. Spread everything back out into a single layer and return the pan to the oven. Roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are lightly toasted. Serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For extra heat, increase the amount of crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Use fresh garlic rather than pre-minced for best flavor.
  • You can swap broccoli for other sturdy vegetables like cauliflower or asparagus if preferred.
  • Make sure the shrimp is fresh or fully thawed for even cooking.
  • This dish pairs well with rice, quinoa, or crusty bread to soak up the garlicky oils.
