A quick and easy sheet pan shrimp boil with spicy Southern flavors, featuring shrimp, potatoes, corn, and andouille sausage roasted together for a flavorful, fuss-free meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds peeled and deveined medium to large shrimp
  • 1 pound baby potatoes (red or Yukon gold), halved or quartered
  • 3 ears corn on the cob, cut into thirds
  • 12 ounces andouille sausage, sliced into rounds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 large lemon, zested and juiced
  • A handful fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Place them on your sheet pan and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss with 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer and roast for 15 minutes.
  3. While potatoes roast, in a large bowl, combine shrimp, sliced andouille sausage, minced garlic, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, remaining 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
  4. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Add the corn pieces and shrimp-sausage mixture on top of the potatoes, spreading everything out evenly.
  5. Roast for another 10-12 minutes until shrimp are pink and opaque, potatoes are fork-tender, and corn is slightly caramelized.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and squeeze the juice of one large lemon all over the shrimp boil. Toss gently to combine flavors.
  7. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley for garnish and serve straight from the pan.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure even roasting. Use fresh shrimp if possible and thaw frozen shrimp fully before use. Adjust cayenne pepper to control spice level. Watch shrimp closely to avoid overcooking. If potatoes are not tender after cooking, cover loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Lemon juice at the end brightens and balances the dish.
