Ingredients
- 1 lb / 450 g large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 large head broccoli, in small florets (about 1 lb / 450 g)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 lemon
- chili flakes
- salt and black pepper
Method
- Heat the oven to 450°F / 230°C. Toss the broccoli with 2 tbsp oil, salt and pepper; roast 12 minutes until the edges char.
- Meanwhile toss the shrimp with the remaining oil, garlic, paprika, salt and a pinch of chili flakes.
- Pull the tray out, push the broccoli aside, and add the shrimp in one layer. Back in for 6–7 minutes until pink and just curled.
- Squeeze the lemon over the whole tray and serve straight from it.
Worth knowing. Shrimp overcook in minutes — pull the tray the moment they turn opaque.
