Why I Love This Recipe

This is one of those dinners that looks beautiful on the table but couldn’t be easier to make. Everything roasts together on one sheet pan, letting the shrimp soak up all those bright lemony herb flavors while the vegetables become perfectly tender and caramelized. Finish it with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of feta, and you’ve got a fresh, colorful meal that feels like summer on a plate.

Enjoying The Leftovers

The bright lemon and herb flavors are just as delicious after a night in the fridge.

Storing

Store the shrimp and vegetables in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheating

Warm everything gently in a skillet over medium heat or microwave until just heated through. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. Finish with fresh lemon juice and feta just before serving if desired.
