Garlic Butter Shrimp and Corn Bake

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2: Lightly grease a large baking dish or disposable aluminum pan with olive oil.

Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4: Add the shrimp and toss until evenly coated in the garlic butter mixture.

Step 5: Arrange the corn pieces in the baking dish and pour half of the garlic butter sauce over them.

Step 6: Spread the seasoned shrimp evenly over and around the corn.

Step 7: Drizzle the remaining garlic butter sauce over the shrimp and corn.

Step 8: Cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.

Step 9: Remove the foil and continue baking for 5–8 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and fully cooked.

Step 10: Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley and chives.

Step 11: Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.

Step 12: Serve hot with lemon wedges and plenty of the garlic butter sauce spooned over the shrimp and corn.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat or in a 325°F (165°C) oven until warmed through.

Avoid overcooking the shrimp during reheating, as they can become tough and rubbery.

For best flavor, spoon some of the reserved garlic butter sauce over the shrimp before serving.

Freezing is not recommended, as the texture of cooked shrimp may deteriorate after thawing.
