Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes halved (about 18-20 small potatoes)
  • 12 ounces andouille or kielbasa sausage cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
  • 6 ears yellow corn shucked and snapped in half
  • 1 1/2 to 2 pounds extra-large shrimp (10-12 count) peeled and deveined, tails on
  • Zest of 1 lemon

Herb Butter

  • 1/2 cup salted butter softened
  • 4 cloves garlic finely grated
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Chopped chives, chopped parsley, lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine olive oil, Old Bay seasoning, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl.
    1/3 cup olive oil, 1 Tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • Scatter the potatoes, sausage, and corn on the baking sheet. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the oil mixture, tossing to evenly coat. Spread in an even layer, then roast until the potatoes are fork-tender, around 20-25 minutes.

  • Scatter the shrimp over the potatoes and corn, then roast another 5-7 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Spread the butter mixture over the shrimp boil, then return the pan to the oven for 1-2 minutes or until the butter has melted.
  • Sprinkle with fresh chives and parsley and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.

Notes

Tips

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan. Use two if needed so everything roasts, not steams.
  • Make sure potatoes are fully tender before adding shrimp.
  • Pat shrimp dry for best texture and even roasting.
  • Add herb butter while everything’s hot so it melts right into the pan.
  • Line the sheet pan with parchment for easy cleanup.

Storage & Make Ahead

  • Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze: Not recommended - shrimp can get rubbery and potatoes won’t hold up well.
  • Reheat: Warm on a baking sheet at 350°F for about 10 minutes until heated through, or in the Air Fryer until hot.
  • Make Ahead: Roast potatoes, sausage, and corn ahead of time, then finish with shrimp and herb butter before serving.
