Sheet Pan Shrimp and Sausage Bake Recipe

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound baby Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
  • 4 ears corn, husked
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 3 tablespoons Creole seasoning
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon paprika, divided
  • teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 orange bell pepper, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 onion, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 4 andouille sausages, sliced
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • teaspoon Creole seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
  • Finely chopped green onion, or to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F (220C). Lightly spray a large sheet pan with cooking spray.
  2. Place the quartered potatoes into a large pot and cover them with salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until tender.
  3. While the potatoes are cooking, add the corn to the pot and boil for an additional 5 minutes. Drain both the potatoes and corn. Cut the corn into thirds and set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 3 tablespoons of Creole seasoning, the juice from 1 lemon, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, teaspoon paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the seasoning mixture. Set it aside.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the boiled potatoes, corn, all the bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, onion, and sausage slices. Add the seasoning mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.
  6. Spread the seasoned potato mixture onto the prepared sheet pan in a single layer. Place the lemon wedges around the edges of the sheet pan.
  7. Bake the sheet pan in the preheated oven for 8 minutes.
  8. While the potato mixture bakes, prepare the shrimp. In a small bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, teaspoon paprika, and teaspoon Creole seasoning. Let the shrimp marinate for a few minutes.
  9. After the potatoes have baked for 8 minutes, add the marinated shrimp to the sheet pan with the potato mixture. Gently mix everything together.
  10. Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for another 6-8 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and fully cooked.
  11. Remove the lemon wedges from the sheet pan. Garnish the dish with chopped parsley and green onions before serving.

Review: Absolutely delicious! This dish has a nice hint of spice, so if you're not a fan of heat, you might want to skip this one. I used Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning which added a perfect amount of spice and salt, so I didn't include extra red pepper or salt. The potatoes only needed to boil for 8 minutes before adding the corn, and I placed the raw shrimp on top of the hot veggies to ensure they cooked through. Both my husband and I loved this dish and I'll definitely be making it again, maybe with extra shrimp next time. It would pair beautifully with some crusty bread and a salad featuring oranges, red onions, and avocado. Big thank you to Ashley for this recipe!

Review: This dish was absolutely delicious and incredibly easy to prepare, making it a wonderful meal in itself. I decided to make it to celebrate my best friend's birthday, with a total of 5 guests. I prepared it the night before and found that it was even better the next day. The only adjustment I made was adding Old Bay seasoning and a dry garlic-butter, while keeping everything else the same. I baked it in a large dish lined with heavy-duty foil and opened it up to allow the shrimp to cook perfectly. I also baked the sausage beforehand. Overall, this dish was fantastic and I am looking forward to making it again. Thank you!

Flavorful and zesty sauce with a touch of heat. I adjusted the Creole seasoning to 2 tablespoons and skipped the salt and pepper in the sauce, as suggested by another reviewer. I opted for melted butter over olive oil in the shrimp marinade. It was a huge success! Looking forward to making it again.

On my first attempt following the original recipe, I found the Andouille sausage and creole seasoning to be too spicy, overpowering the flavors of the medium shrimp. For my next try, I opted for sweet Italian sausage, jumbo shrimp, and crafted my own creole seasoning blend using a mix of spices. This custom seasoning made with paprika, garlic and onion powder, cayenne pepper, black and white pepper, dried oregano, basil, and thyme can be adjusted to suit personal tastes. Although the recipe required some effort, the end result was well worth it. This flavorful dish has now become a regular in our meal rotation, thanks to the modifications I made. A great addition to our repertoire - thank you for sharing the recipe!

I decided to try using creole seasoning in this recipe, and surprisingly it wasn't too spicy. The flavor was just right and we really enjoyed this new twist. Instead of boiling, I cubed the potatoes and microwaved them, and I also used thawed frozen corn cobs. Next time, I'll make sure to flip the vegetables while baking as the tops dried out a bit. The tomatoes added a wonderful tangy flavor that I loved. This recipe makes a large portion of food, but because the pan was crowded, the vegetables ended up a bit soggy.

My husband gave it a five-star rating! I couldn't stop laughing at another review. The only change I made was using frozen raw shrimp (thawed), but I suggest using fresh large raw shrimp instead. It turned out perfect! I will definitely be making it again. The only hiccup was not having a large sheet pan, so I used a big roasting pan and had to cook it for 20 minutes before adding the shrimp. Check out the photo!

Rewritten review: I accidentally forgot the spray oil, but it wasn't a problem. As others have mentioned, this recipe makes a huge portion, so I halved it for just two people and still had leftovers. I added extra shrimp and used extra-large ones. To enhance the flavor, I increased the amount of seasoning mix by 50%, and next time I plan to triple it as it wasn't enough to coat the veggies to my liking. I improvised with some Balsamic Vinaigrette and Italian dressing, along with extra seasoning, which didn't have any negative impact. I included more sausages since my grandson loves meat, and the cooking times were spot on. To my surprise, even my younger grandkids, who usually don't like veggies, enjoyed the dish and licked their bowls clean. The recipe was easy to follow, although I had to lay out the veggies as I didn't have a large enough bowl to mix them in. The final result looked exactly like the picture, and it was a fantastic family dinner for the five of us. Thank you!

Review Rewritten: Vibrant and tasty dish! I was impressed by how delicious the potatoes turned out, despite initially being a bit mushy after draining. The oven baking helped them firm up perfectly while retaining their shape. I used 2 lbs of shrimp and opted for chicken andouille sausage instead of regular, using the entire package - the dish was so spicy that the kids didn't even notice the switch. To save time and dishes, I drizzled just a couple of teaspoons of sauce on the shrimp instead of using a separate sauce. Served with cornbread on the side for a truly delicious meal.

Absolutely loved this dish! I increased the recipe to include 4 pounds of shrimp, which comfortably served 13 people and could have easily fed 15-16. The dish received rave reviews from everyone, who all asked for the recipe. I made a milder version for a few guests by using just creole seasoning, olive oil, and lemon juice. This will definitely be a staple summer meal for family gatherings at our cabin.

I enhanced the meal with snow crab legs cooked alongside potatoes, sausage, and corn in a flavorful crab boil seasoning instead of just salt. My family thoroughly enjoyed this delicious twist!

I enhanced the meal by including snow crab legs, which I boiled along with potatoes, sausage, and corn in crab boil seasoning instead of just salt. My family absolutely adored it.

I absolutely adored this recipe! The only downside is that children aren't fond of spicy dishes... so I suggest a heads-up if you're making this for the family... and I omitted the red pepper flakes! Anyone who enjoys spicy food will be thrilled with this recipe! Thanks!

This recipe was a bit cumbersome to prepare with so many different ingredients required, and at the start, I thought I wouldn't bother making it again. However, the end result was surprisingly delicious. It turned out really tasty, even though I omitted the green onions. So, I might give it another try, but probably not too soon!

This dish was fantastic! I decided to reduce the amount of paprika and red pepper slightly. The potatoes could probably benefit from being cooked a bit less, say around 5-8 minutes, but that's an easy tweak. It does make a large portion, so I had to use 2 pans to cook it all. However, we're more than happy to enjoy the leftovers!

I utilized some leftovers (potatoes and corn) and extra peppers from the garden to plan this dish. It turned out delicious!

Included hot dogs, chourico or linguica, sausage, sweet potatoes, and occasionally some clams. It's like a complete clam bake!

I had most of the ingredients for this recipe, but I was missing the creole seasoning and had never used it before, so I was a bit unsure. I made a few mistakes, like forgetting to marinate the shrimp in the seasoning and adding the cooked potatoes to them, so I had to improvise a bit. I also had only a little olive oil, so I mixed in some canola oil. Despite all that, the dish turned out to be delicious! I honestly believe that the dish still turned out great even without the creole seasoning. I shared some with my neighbor, and she called me to say how good it was. I absolutely loved it!
