this easy sheet pan dinner comes together in under 20 minutes and is a total crowd pleaser!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 pound large shrimp (fresh or frozen), peeled & deveined (I also like to take the tails off but that’s a personal choice!)

  • 1 orange bell pepper, washed, de-seeded & thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, washed, de-seeded & thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, peeled & thinly sliced (red or white onion would work as well)
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line a sheet pan with tin foil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine shrimp, peppers, onions, chili powder, cumin and paprika together in a bowl.  Toss to combine.
  3. Place onto a sheet pan and spread evenly in a single layer.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle with salt & pepper.
  5. Toss to combine then spread back out into a single layer.
