Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper; toss until evenly coated.
- Add asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion to the shrimp mixture, then toss again to lightly coat the vegetables with oil and seasonings.
- Spread the shrimp and vegetable mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring ingredients are spaced out for roasting.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Remove from the oven, squeeze fresh lemon wedges over the dinner, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley or dill if desired; serve immediately.
Notes
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level. For best results, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet; use two sheets if necessary to ensure everything roasts evenly.
