A meal in a sheet pan never really gets old, does it? Introducing our newest sheet pan creation: the Mediterranean Sheet Pan Shrimp dinner! Combine juicy shrimp with colorful Mediterranean veggies like cherry tomatoes and tangy artichoke, then top it off with a squeeze of lemon and a hearty sprinkle of feta cheese. Serve with orzo, couscous or rice and it’s an explosion of flavor on your plate (or bowl). Here’s how to whip up this tasty weeknight dinner.
Ingredients for sheet pan shrimp
This sheet pan shrimp dinner can be made with a variety of vegetables: but the ones we chose here are quick to cook! The veggies are only baked for 10 minutes before you add the shrimp, so you’ll need to stick with quick cooking vegetables if you plan to get creative. Here are the veggies and seasonings to make this sheet pan meal:
- Cherry tomatoes
- Red onion
- Canned artichoke hearts
- Green beans: make sure the beans are as thin as possible; if not, you may want to slice them in half lengthwise to avoid tough beans
- Olive oil
- Spices: Garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt
- Shrimp
- Lemon juice
- Feta cheese
- Parsley or dill
Basic concept: dinner on a sheet pan
The basic concept for a shrimp sheet pan dinner? You’ll cook the veggies and protein right on the very same sheet pan. Shrimp cooks very quickly, but the veggies need a bit more time in the oven (though not much!). So you’ll cook the veggies first, then add the shrimp. Here are the basic steps:
- Prep the veggies by mixing them with olive oil and seasonings. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake the veggies for 10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Meanwhile, prep the shrimp by mixing it with olive oil and seasonings.
- Add the shrimp to the same sheet pan and bake 6 to 8 minutes, until it’s opaque and cooked through. Easy as that!
Ways to serve this sheet pan shrimp dinner
While the sheet pan shrimp bakes, you’ve got time to make a simple side for serving it. This looks lovely on the plate or bowl when you serve it, and makes the meal more filling. Here are our top picks for making sheet pan shrimp into dinner:
