You guys, it’s been far too long since I paid homage to my all-time favorite food:

Shrimp.

And though I’ve made shrimp scampi a few times to help tide myself over, lately I’ve been hungering for something new to spice things up. I’ve also been in a bit of the rush over the past couple of days, working through some early spring cleaning and preparing for some company later this week (which just means even more cleaning).

So since I’m pressed for time, I figured now was a good a time as any to try out another recipe of Pinterest legend:

Baked Italian Shrimp.

It takes only 15 minutes to cook (yes!) and utilizes dry Italian dressing mix as an extra burst of flavor (yes yes yes!).

I’ve proven before that I’m a sucker for recipes that use dry Italian dressing mix – because, well, it makes everything delicious.

And I love delicious things. I’m sure you do, too.

What to add to this Italian shrimp dish

When I make this recipe, I like to use whatever frozen vegetables I have on hand. In our house that typically means broccoli or carrots, and I’ve found both to be a good fit for this dish. When using frozen vegetables, I thaw them out beforehand and then add them to the dish to be baked with the shrimp.

If you’re looking for a more filling option, try adding your favorite pasta. Trust me, there will be plenty of buttery Italian sauce to coat all the noodles. Just cook the pasta per the package instructions while the shrimp bakes and toss them together before serving.

Can you use frozen shrimp?

For this recipe, you can use fresh or frozen raw shrimp, but frozen shrimp should be thawed, rinsed, and dried before baking.

Notes & tips for this baked shrimp with Italian seasoning

  • As mentioned above, if you’re using any frozen ingredients (whether it be the shrimp or veggies) make sure to thaw and dry them first before baking.

    I love the simplicity of this – I probably wouldn’t use the italian dressing mix but just a few herbs from my stash. Wow – is this gorgeous with the broccoli! Well done!!

      Thank you Josie 😀 A shrimp dish isn’t a good shrimp dish without butter in there somewhere.

    I’ve been trying to get my an old friend of mine to eat some more shrimp. He’s been hesitant but I think when I show him this recipe, he’ll be okay with it! As always this looks delicious!

    Did you use frozen or fresh broccoli? I couldn’t tell from the picture.

      Hey Jill! For this recipe, I used frozen broccoli.

    Looks delicious! But I have multiple questions (Sorry!). Were the shrimp pre-cooked and frozen, raw and frozen, fresh and raw? Did you put the broccoli in frozen or did you thaw it at all? If you put it in frozen, did you find there was a lot of excess water in the pan?

      No problem with questions Katie! I used both frozen and thawed shrimp & broccoli for this recipe. I haven’t tried it, but I agree there might be too much water in the pan if these were cooked from frozen. If you have time, I highly recommend thawing and rinsing the ingredients before baking (or just using fresh).

    This looks SO yummy! I absolutely love shrimp so I’ll have to add this to my menu soon. Serving this over pasta sounds perfect! 🙂

    How can this just be 90 g of carbohydrates? Where exactly are the carbohydrates when it only has shrimp, dry I talion seasoning, butter? I’m really confused
