Equipment
- sheet pan
- small sauce pot
- mixing bowls optional
- oil sprayer optional
Ingredients
- 1 lb shrimp deveined, peeled or unpeeled
- 1 lb red potatoes halved
- 1 lb smoked sausage
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt plus 1 tablespoon for water
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 fresh lemon
- fresh parsley to garnish
Instructions
- Par Boil Potatoes: Add water to a medium sized saucepan with 1 tablespoon of kosher salt and 1/2 lemon. Add halved potatoes and heat over high to bring to a boil. Par boil the potatoes for 10 minutes and then drain and set aside.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400℉. Lightly oil a sheet pan (we use an olive oil mister for this) and set aside.
- Prep Other Ingredients: Meanwhile, husk the corn and cut into thirds. Slice sausage and all corn and sausage to a large bowl.
- Butter Seasoning: Add butter and oil to a small sauce pan (or a microwave safe bowl) and melt butter on stovetop on medium (or in the microwave). Add Old Bay Seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the butter and oil and mix well.
- Season: Add most of the butter seasoning to the corn, shrimp, and sausage and mix well. Add the rest to the potatoes and mix and add it all to a lightly oiled sheet pan. *We do this in a large bowl, but this can all be done on the sheet pan to save the extra dishes. If mixing all together, let the potatoes slightly cool first.
- Bake: Add the tray to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Serve and Enjoy! Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with remaining lemon cut into wedges and enjoy!
Notes
Substitutions
Shrimp: We've made this with both peeled and unpeeled shrimp. The unpeeled shrimp is still incredibly flavorful, but my kids prefer it when they're unpeeled.
Smoked Sausage: Use your favorites! We love a smoked andouille for this recipe but have also made it with kielbasa.
Potatoes: Any waxy red or yellow potato is great for this. We used larger red potatoes that we cut in half, but you could also use whole small red or yellow potatoes or fingerling potatoes. Par boiling them first will ensure that you have a fully cooked potato.
Sheet Pan Clean Up
One of the best parts of a sheet pan meal is the easy clean up! We opted to use bowls and saucepans for this recipe, but you can absolutely use fewer dishes by mixing it all right on the oiled sheet pan. Just be sure to let your potatoes have had at least a minute or two to cool slightly before adding it all together and mixing.
