Ingredients
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 lemon, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, asparagus pieces, olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
Spread the shrimp and asparagus mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
While the shrimp and asparagus are roasting, in a small bowl, mix the melted butter, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven after 10 minutes. Drizzle the lemon butter mixture evenly over the shrimp and asparagus.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 2 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
