Baked shrimp and broccoli with lemon butter sauce recipe is mouth watering. Not to mention easy. My favorite dinner is an easy one. I’m not much for spending hours in the kitchen.
this recipe is quick and easy with sacrificing flavor. It has that nice buttery and garlic flavor that you just can’t have shrimp without.

Ingredients
- 1 lb medium raw shrimp (peeled and deveined, tail-on or tail-off)
- 2 tbs butter, diced (or olive oil)
- 1 tbs minced garlic
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbs vegetable or chicken stock, divided
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
- Red chili pepper flakes, optional
- 1/2 lemon juiced
- 1 large head of broccoli, broken into florets
- Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425ºF.
- Cut 2 sheets of 14 by 12-inch aluminum foil. Lay each piece separately on the countertop. In a small bowl, mix the spices together.
- Using a plate, add shrimp and sprinkle with the spice mix, coating well.
- Divide shrimp onto the aluminum foil near the center then place broccoli florets to one side of the shrimp.
- Add garlic over broccoli and shrimp, then sprinkle with lemon juice, red crushed chili pepper flakes (if using) and finish with salt and pepper. Divide butter pieces evenly among the shrimp foil packets, layering them over the shrimp and broccoli.
- Add a tablespoon of vegetable stock in each foil packet and wrap packets in and crimp edges together then wrap ends up. Don’t wrap too tight – keep a little extra space inside for heat to circulate.
- Transfer to a baking sheet and bake shrimp foil packets in the oven, sealed side upward until shrimps have cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Carefully unwrap the baked shrimp and broccoli foil packets then garnish with fresh parsley and a slice of lemon.
