How To Make Ina Garten Roasted Shrimp With Lemon And Garlic

1. Preheat oven: Heat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or foil.
2. Prepare shrimp: Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss with olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, salt, and pepper.

4. Finish and serve: Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Recipe Tips

• How to know shrimp is done: Shrimp should be opaque, pink, and curled into a loose “C” shape.
• Can I use frozen shrimp? Yes, just thaw and pat dry before roasting.
• Can I double the recipe? Absolutely—use two sheet pans so the shrimp roast evenly.
• What if I don’t have jumbo shrimp? Medium or large shrimp work too; reduce cooking time by 2–3 minutes.
• How to add more flavor: A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a little heat.

What To Serve With Roasted Shrimp

This bright, citrusy shrimp pairs perfectly with:

• Garlic butter pasta
• Fresh garden salad

How To Store Roasted Shrimp

Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Reheat: Warm gently in a skillet over medium-low heat or serve chilled in a salad.
Freeze: Not recommended once cooked, as shrimp can become rubbery.
