Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • On a baking sheet, toss the broccoli, red bell pepper, and zucchini with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until tender.
  • While the veggies are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque.
  • Once the shrimp are cooked, stir in the grated parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss everything until well combined.
  • Serve the shrimp and veggies on a plate, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute the veggies with other favorites like asparagus or snap peas.
  • If you prefer more cheese, feel free to add extra parmesan on top when serving.
