Description
Ina Garten’s Sheet Pan Roasted Shrimp is a straightforward method of cooking large shrimp by tossing them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and sometimes garlic or lemon, then roasting them in a single layer in a hot oven. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the shrimp and gives them a slightly caramelised edge without overcooking.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)
- Lemon wedges (optional)
Instructions
- Step: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
- Step: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Step: In a mixing bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional garlic or lemon juice until well coated.
- Step: Spread the shrimp in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan, ensuring they do not overlap.
- Step: Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and just curled.
- Step: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon if desired, and serve immediately.
