Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil

Easiest shrimp boil ever! And it’s mess-free using a single sheet pan. That’s right. ONE PAN. No newspapers. No bags. No clean-up!
I have a hot date waiting for me. With four short legs. Massive ears. And a sweater vest. Yes. My Valentine’s date tonight is Butters. And we’ll be staying in, away from the crowds, the flowers and the jewelry.
Instead, we have this. And it’s better than roses or a blue Tiffany box. It comes on a single sheet pan with shrimp, smoked andouille sausage, baby Dutch yellow potatoes and corn. Plus, there’s plenty of butter and garlic with minimal clean up here.
Thank you, sheet pan dinner.
So maybe it worked out that I didn’t have a human date tonight. Because Butters doesn’t discriminate against garlic breath.

Sheet Pan Shrimp Boil: Frequently Asked Questions
I recommend thawing frozen shrimp overnight, transferring it from the freezer to the fridge the day before. For a quick thaw, you can run them under cold water until completely thawed, about 5-10 minutes. Pat them dry as thoroughly as possible to remove any excess moisture (so they can brown nicely and evenly).
Some favorites are homemade crusty bread, cornbread, or a light salad.

Wow, fabulous Sunday dinner! My beautiful daughter made this for me & I enjoyed it so much. I asked her for the recipe today. Made together with my Granddaughter and it was perfect. Infact the crab legs were in sale so I mixed them in for 5mins with the shrimp boil then added the shrimp for an additional 3mins I will definitely make it again with my other Grandchildren. Thank you so much for sharing. #familytime #love #blessed #foodporn #yummy
Can I use frozen corn?
I gave this recipe to my sister, who made it for her family. They loved it! I made it for company last night and it was a big hit! With a little make-head, you can easily put together the rest and can be baked while enjoying appetizers!
Have made this several times this summer exactly as recipe states. Everyone loves it! Easily doubled for a larger crowd.
This turns out perfect every time I make it! Love to do it at the beach in a big aluminum pan and hardly any clean up! Yummy!!
Made this recipe tonight for a small group and it turned out great .was able to prep most of it ahead of time and added butter mixture & shrimp at the end -it was a crowd pleaser !
This is AMAZING!! My hubby loved it and he can be a picky eater! He said it was the best thing I’ve ever made!’I used turkey sausages to lower the points and it was so good! This is a keeper and it’s going to be in my favorite recipe box!!
Loved this recipe!!!
Love this recipe. Have made it a bunch of times. Easy, yummy and spice adjustable!
I made it and we LOVE it!!!
Thank you for the recipe
I love making this easy one pan dish…so tasty and nice to have a meal all in one! I’ve made it a few times for my family of 4 and made it for the 4th of July for 7 of us and everyone loved it!
The family love this when I make it. Five stars
My husband and I loved this! We’re having a heatwave so we put the sheet pan on the grill instead and it worked perfectly. I made double the amount of the butter sauce and that was the right move.
This has been a family favorite for several years now. I love that I can make it on a weeknight! Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Made a double batch of this for the family and they loved it! I didn’t have Old Bay seasoning, so I used Weber N’Orleans Cajun seasoning instead. I also threw some sliced up mushrooms on the sheet pan. Made some coconut rice as a side dish for this. Great compliment to it!
THE BOMB!
I know this is an old recipe, and I love it and have made it several times, but I’m just now realizing that it’s advertised as a one pan recipe. It uses a sheet pan, a pot, a bowl, and a cutting board/knife (corn and fresh parsley). Still easy and delicious, but definitely not one-pan!
This needs jumbo shrimp raw. I used 1 tbsp. creole seasoning in butter mix Sprayed foiled pan with butter oll spray. Finished with salt and pepper when finished. .
Made this last night and actually was impressed with myself. I could not quit eating it. It was so delicious …thanks so much for this receipe.
Has anyone used frozen shrimp?
Yes. We always use the shrimp frozen. I do rinse them in cold water. When the shrimp is done, everything is.
It’s a great timer.
