Ingredients
- 1 lb baby Dutch yellow potatoes
- 3 ears corn each cut crosswise into 6 pieces
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
- 1 lb medium shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 12.8-oz package smoked andouille sausage, thinly sliced
- 1 lemon cut into wedges
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley optional, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Lightly oil a large baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
- Parboil Potatoes and Corn: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook 1 lb baby potatoes for 10-13 minutes until just tender. Add 3 ears of corn (cut into pieces) during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Drain well and set aside.
- Make the Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup melted butter, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning.
- Assemble on the Sheet Pan: Arrange the parboiled potatoes, corn, 1 lb shrimp, and sliced andouille sausage in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the butter mixture over everything and toss gently to coat.
- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque and the corn is tender.
- Serve: Serve immediately with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of 2 tbsp chopped parsley, if desired, for a vibrant summer dinner recipe.
Notes
- Parboil Ahead: Boil potatoes and corn 1-2 days in advance and store in the fridge for a quicker summer dinner recipe.
- Pat Shrimp Dry: Remove excess moisture from shrimp to ensure they brown nicely.
- Even Layer: Spread ingredients in a single layer on the sheet pan for uniform cooking.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste and add more Old Bay or salt if desired for extra flavor.
- Reheat Properly: Reheat leftovers in a 425°F oven, covered with foil, to avoid rubbery shrimp.
