Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner – One Pan Recipe

13 Comments

Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner is one of the best one-pan meals I’ve had in a long time. Buttery-roasted Yukon potatoes are super creamy and cook quickly. Fennel bulbs have a signature sweet, licorice but mild flavor that’s the perfect compliment to the briny shrimp. Add feta cheese, garlic-y shallots, and Kalamata olives?

Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner is a perfect one pan recipe for weeknights or dinner parties. Oven roasted veggies topped with shrimp that's absolutely tender.

Well, it only gets better- Seasoned with oregano, lemon zest, fresh parsley and just the perfect amount of olive oil to help crisp up the veggies and meld all the Mediterranean flavors. I promise you’re going to love this recipe.

Let’s talk about this recipe’s most important ingredient. Perfectly cooked shrimp. Since shrimp cooks so quickly, it easily goes from amazing and tender to rubber-ruined. But look how easy it is to get this right…

Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner is a perfect one pan recipe for weeknights or dinner parties. Oven roasted veggies topped with shrimp that's absolutely perfect.

Layer the veggies and olives on the baking sheet tossed with olive oil, salt, pepper, and big cloves of garlic. In less than 30 minutes, the potatoes are perfectly tender, plus the oven-roasting adds a bit of char to the edges of the potatoes, fennel and shallots.

Last but super quick, the shrimp is tossed with oil, oregano, and lemon zest. Then layer it on top. Toss on a nice helping of feta and place the pan back in the oven for just a few minutes more, until the shrimp is pink, about six minutes. You seriously cannot get this wrong. Okay, if you overcook the shrimp it’s going to be VERY wrong. Which is why quickly oven-baked shrimp is tender, flavorful, perfect, shrimp. The oregano and lemon zest add such yumminess to the shrimp, they don’t need any sear or charring for great flavor.

Beautiful and easy, just serve it in the pan with lemon wedges on the side. Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner doesn’t need a lot of accompaniments either. A quick salad of sliced cucumbers and tomatoes tossed in oil and balsamic vinegar. A perfect weeknight meal, but this one is company-worthy as well. Give this a try, you’re family’s going to want it again and again!

Mediterranean Shrimp Dinner - One Pan Recipe

The shrimp will bake to perfection with this method, not over or under-cooked, just watch the color for doneness. Also a yummy side dish, just leave off the shrimp! But speaking of shrimp, be sure to get good quality large (20-30) or extra large (15-20) shrimp.

    Sally,
    After telling you I couldn’t get fennel, guess what showed up at the store.
    I made this according to your instructions and my wife, Judy, and I loved it. We are having quests over this evening and am making it again.
    Thank you for the all the flavors.

      Hello Keith! In place of the fennel, you could easily substitute celery, just slice it in 1-inch cubes. But if you can get anise seed seasoning, sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon over the dish before cooking and that will give you the spot-on fennel flavor you’re looking for and you can forgo the celery root altogether. Let me know what you think of it and thanks for “visiting” from what I’m imagining as a little piece of paradise on the island.

    Stumbled across this recipe while looking for something different and easy and healthy. We were stuck on a mountain top during a winter storm. I had to substitute for fennel, and it still worked. Husband said it was his new favorite meal.

      Excellent, Beth! Tell your husband I appreciate it. And I hope being “stuck on a mountain top during a winter storm” was more comfortable than it sounds. 🙂

      Thanks, my friend. We just had it again last night, it’s so great for low stress but impress dinner. Hey, I’m sipping coffee right now too… I want your cranberry coffee cake. Dave and Ryan want me to serve your coffee cake with Christmas breakfast… I can’t wait! Happy Holidays to you all, Kevin. Thanks for your support and example.
