Ingredients
  

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried parsley (plus more for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of 1 lemon

Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, olive oil, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss the shrimp in the mixture until well coated.

      Prepare the Asparagus: Place the trimmed asparagus on the sheet pan and drizzle with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

        Combine Ingredients: Spread the shrimp evenly over the asparagus on the sheet pan. Make sure the shrimp and asparagus are in a single layer for even cooking.

          Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the shrimp is pink and opaque, and the asparagus is tender-crisp.

            Add Lemon Juice: Once out of the oven, drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and asparagus. Toss gently to combine flavors.

              Garnish and Serve: Garnish with additional parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.
