Roasting shrimp is so easy! First, let the oil and aromatics meld as the oven comes up to temperature, then add the shrimp and vegetables to cook them in a few minutes. We use cauliflower, sugar snap peas, and snow peas as a nod to fresh spring produce, but you can use whatever is in season or what you've got in the fridge, like broccoli or bell peppers, or even frozen peas if that's all that's available. Just be sure to stir up all those delicious browned bits at the bottom of the pan to toss with the shrimp—that's where a lot of the flavor is!

Mix the olive oil, rosemary, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a large roasting or broiler pan. Set on the middle rack of the oven and turn the oven to 400F. Cook undisturbed for 10 minutes or until fragrant.

Add the shrimp, cauliflower, sugar snap peas, and snow peas; toss well to coat. Continue roasting for 8 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the shrimp are pink and firm, about 8 minutes, stirring once.
