Roasted Shrimp With Peppers and Lemon
Jonny Valiant
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat oven to 450° F. Cook the rice according to the package directions.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the bell pepper, lemon, thyme, scallions, red pepper, 1 tablespoon of the oil, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Spread the mixture on a rimmed baking sheet (reserving the bowl).
Step 4
Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss with the paprika, remaining tablespoon of oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Nestle in the mixture on the baking sheet.
Step 5
Roast until the shrimp are cooked through and the bell peppers are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve over the rice.

I just made this tonight and I thought it was excellent- I would have preferred a bit more kick- but I made it for people who have a low spice threshold and it was sill really good and they thought it was great. I only made the following "tweaks"- I added a sliced onion- I mixed the shrimp right in with the rest of the ingredients- didn't separate them and I increased the lemon a little. I didn't serve it serve it with rice because I was concerned about how much "sauce" it would make- and glad I didn't- it doesn't make a "Lot" of juice- would definitely make it again.

I added some fresh garlic and cayenne before baking, and I still thought it was missing something. It was quick and easy, but I don't think I'll make this again. Thanks anyway.

fast and tasty - I doubled the peppers and will add red onion next time - peppers picked up the lemon flavour very nicely. Make extra basmati as a time saver for another meal.

Made it and really enjoyed it, will definitely be making it again but I'm still thinking of a nice way to spruce up the rice... I thought maybe putting it over a small pasta - orzo maybe?

Great weeknight dinner...you can mix up the shrimp & veggies while the oven preheats & clean everything up while it bakes. I used some pre-made basmati rice & served with a side of peas. Even my husband who doesn't usually like shrimp enjoyed it.

This was a great recipe, with quick and easy clean-up. I skipped the rice and brought it to a potluck, since it doesn't have to be piping hot to be good. It was a big hit!
