An easy throw-together meal that is bursting with flavor, this sheet pan meal is perfect for a weeknight or anytime you need something quick and delicious.
Busy weeknights were made for sheet pan meals, and I can’t wait for you to give this one a try!
This covers your protein & veggie for a super simple low carb option. Want a little something more? We also love this served alongside white rice or some smashed gold potatoes! Some creamy Garlic Ranch Mashed Potatoes could be pretty amazing too!
The main ingredients at play in this easy recipe are shrimp & broccoli (the rest you probably have on hand in your pantry/fridge!)
Shrimp is one of our favorites for weeknights because we can store it frozen (we LOVE the Red Argentinian shrimp from Trader Joe’s) and it thaws so fast in the sink.
A bag of broccoli is just a grocery trip (or Instacart order) away, and we always seem to have that on hand too!
Toss it all on a sheet pan, season… you guys. It doesn’t get easier, but it seriously tastes SO GOOD.
The flavors here are some of my favorites – can’t go wrong with a lemon garlic combo!
I also love how convenient this is for leftovers, because they taste just as good cold as they do warmed up! So great to take along with you to work when you may or may not have the opportunity to heat up your food.
Eating on the road? Keep an ice pack in your lunch bag, and eat it cold in your car! I have eaten plenty of car meals from glass containers in my day, and this would be a perfect one.
Recipe Notes
- We love the large Red Argentinian wild caught shrimp from Trader Joe’s – but any shrimp will do! We get peeled & deveined for convenience.
- Try served over white rice (if you do grains), baked sweet potato, or smashed gold potatoes.
- A little “Everything But the Bagel” seasoning tastes amazing sprinkled over top!
Hope you enjoy this easy, clean meal as much as we do! It’s honestly a go-to. Let me know in a comment below if you give it a try!
