One Pan Shrimp Bake

Lazy Cooking at its BEST!

shrimp bakeMy kids are in some sort of activity every night and I am constantly looking for dishes that are quick, easy, and something that I think they will eat. This isn’t easy, not that my kids are really picky, but they all don’t share all of the same tastes, and we try not to eat out of boxes too often.

Recently my father-in-law gave us a ton of sweet corn and I was trying to find ways to use it. I came across sheet pan meals, including ones using corn. I changed some things to suit our tastes and the kids all loved it, my youngest even asked if we could make it every night! This shrimp bake couldn’t be easier and is “fancy” enough it could make a great stay-in date night dinner!

Ingredients

  • shrimp
  • andouille sausage
  • corn
  • small potatoes or finger potatoes
  • butter
  • cilantro
  • lemon
  • garlic
  • Old Bay seasoning

When my father-in-law gave us the corn I immediately quartered it and froze it, so I boiled both my potatoes and corn together for the entire 10 minutes. If your corn is fresh you probably wouldn’t need the whole 10 minutes for the corn. I also used frozen shrimp that I defrosted, don’t just throw frozen shrimp on the pan. We love cilantro so we used a lot, if you don’t like cilantro you could use parsley.

All in all, this shrimp bake is a dish that you can cook on a busy night before or after Taekwondo or Soccer and have a satisfying meal that will please!
