Preparation

  • In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, then toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Cooking

  • Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on one half of the prepared sheet pan and roast for 10-12 minutes.
  • While the vegetables roast, pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven and arrange the seasoned shrimp in a single layer on the other half of the sheet pan, next to the partially cooked vegetables. Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes.

Serving

  • Garnish with fresh lemon wedges, chopped parsley or cilantro, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.
