Description
A mess-free seafood dinner featuring shrimp, smoked beef sausage, corn, and potatoes coated in a garlic butter sauce and roasted on a single sheet pan. This recipe delivers classic seafood boil flavor with easy cleanup.
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby yellow potatoes
- 3 ears fresh corn
- 12 ounces smoked beef sausage
- 1 pound raw medium shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 0.33 cup unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 medium lemon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for the baking sheet)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (for boiling water)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and brush a large rimmed baking sheet with the olive oil.
- Fill a large pot with water, add the kosher salt, and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Add the baby potatoes to the boiling water and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until they are just starting to become tender.
- Shuck the corn and carefully cut each ear crosswise into three or four smaller cob segments.
- Add the corn segments to the pot with the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of boiling, then drain all the vegetables well in a colander.
- Slice the smoked beef sausage into half-inch thick rounds and mince the garlic cloves while the vegetables drain.
- Melt the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl and whisk in the minced garlic and Old Bay seasoning.
- Spread the drained potatoes, sliced sausage, corn cobs, and raw shrimp in a single even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Pour the seasoned butter mixture over the sheet pan ingredients and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the corn is tender and the shrimp are opaque and pearly pink.
- Confirm the shrimp reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F and the sausage is hot throughout.
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the hot tray, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
Notes
- This meal is hands-on and fun to eat directly from the sheet pan.
- Peel and devein the shrimp before starting the preparation.
