Ingredients:

Here's an overview of what you'll need to make my Sheet Pan Shrimp Teriyaki.  Keep scrolling for the full printable.

• Shrimp: Use can use medium or larger shrimp for this shrimp teriyaki depending on what you can find and your budget.  Large shrimp are preferable though.  Look for 16-20 count.  I like to buy already peeled and deveined shrimp since this is a fast weekday meal but if you find fresh ones that need to be peeled, it's easy.  Just start at the bottom of the shrimp where the legs are.  Pull off the shell and leave the tail on.  To devein the shrimp, run a small knife along the back of the shrimp and remove the dark vein.
• Shredded Carrots: Use pre-shredded carrots to make this a super fast meal.  I love the texture, color, and flavor of the carrots.
• Broccoli Florets: Use fresh and not frozen broccoli.  I like to buy a bag of the already chopped florets for an easy meal.
• Red Bell Pepper: The red bell pepper adds even more color and is the only veggie you'll need to chop.
• Snap Peas: Sugar snap peas are fresh and crisp and the perfect addition to this Asian stir fry shrimp teriyaki.
• Teriyaki Sauce: Use your favorite bottled sauce or follow my recipe below to make your own.  A few of my favorite bottled dressings are here, here, or here.<--- The third option is paleo and keto!
• Soy Sauce:  I like to use low-sodium soy sauce.
• Sesame Oil: Rich sesame oil is the perfect flavor addition to this dish.
• Sesame Seeds: Sesame seeds are a flavorful and pretty topping.
• Extras: Rice, cauliflower rice, quinoa, or noodles.  You can also garnish with green onions.

Instructions:

It's crazy how easy this sheet pan Shrimp Teriyaki is!  The only trick is to put the veggies in without the shrimp first.

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking pan with foil.  Spray it with cooking spray.
2. Toss the vegetables in soy sauce and sesame oil.
3. Roast the veggies for 10 minutes.
4. While the veggies are roasting toss the shrimp in the teriyaki sauce.
5. Pull the veggies out of the oven and add the shrimp on top.
6. Cook for another few minutes... just until the shrimp turn pink!  Don't overcook.
7. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
8. Serve alone or with your favorite rice or noodles with extra teriyaki sauce.

This entire dinner is on your table in no time at all!

Tips for Cooking Teriyaki Shrimp

• Don't put all of the shrimp teriyaki in at once.  Like a lot of my sheet pan meals the veggies without the shrimp go in the oven first.  That gives them time to soften and cook.  The last step is adding the shrimp on top and putting the pan in the oven again.
• The shrimp in my Sheet Pan Teriyaki Shrimp recipe cook in just minutes.  They are so much tastier if you can pull them out of the oven just as they start to curl and turn pink.  Overcooking shrimp is what makes them rubbery.
• You can serve this tasty pan of shrimp and veggies alone for a carb-free meal OR add serve it on top of a tasty bowl of steamed white rice.  Either way is delish.

Variations

I love this Sheet Pan Shrimp Teriyaki recipe as written, but here are some fun ways to mix it up. 

• Make it Spicy: This is a sweeter Asian sauce, so this recipe is not spicy.  If you'd like to make it spicy add a drizzle of sriracha after cooking.  You could also add some red pepper flakes to the sauce.
• Mix up the Protein:  This recipe cooks super fast because it uses shrimp BUT you can cook other meats or fish like this including chicken.  You could also use scallops!  Tofu would also work great.
• Mix up the Veggies: I used these veggies for the combination of flavors, colors, and textures but feel free to use any vegetables you have in the fridge.  Other good options would be cauliflower, onion, mushrooms, or green beans.  On a different note, if you are making it for pickier eaters you can make just teriyaki shrimp and broccoli.  This recipe is customizable too so many tastes and diets.
• Make it More Teriyaki:  I used soy sauce and sesame oil on the vegetables to keep the entire dish a bit lighter but make this a teriyaki flavor explosion by tossing the veggies in more teriyaki too.
• Make it in a Foil Packet: Make a foil packet of Shrimp Teriyaki by assembling your veggies and shrimp in foil packets.  Cook until tender.

FAQ

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! Sheet Pan Shrimp Teriyaki tastes best fresh BUT it reheats well for lunch and meal prep.  Make a double or triple batch to have extras.

How do I store leftovers?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

What's the difference between teriyaki sauce and teriyaki marinade?

Terikai Sauce is used to flavor the food while cooking.  A teriyaki marinade's purpose is to soak and season the meat before cooking it.  You'll need a teriyaki sauce for this recipe.

Can I make my own teriyaki sauce?

Yes, here's my simple recipe for homemade teriyaki sauce for Shrimp Teriyaki!  You will need 1 teaspoon minced garlic, ½ teaspoon minced ginger, ¼ cup soy sauce, ⅛ cup water, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water.

To make the sauce add the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, vinegar, and sesame oil to a medium pan.  Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.  Make a cornstarch slurry by, in a small bowl, whisking together the second tablespoon of water with the cornstarch.  Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the soy sauce mixture on the stove.  Simmer and whisk constantly until the sauce is thick which should be around 1-2 minutes.
