Instructions
- Prep: Heat oven to 450°F. Line a sheet pan. Pat shrimp dry. Cut broccoli into bite-size florets. Thinly slice cabbage. Slice cucumber. Mince garlic (keep 2 cloves for shrimp/broccoli, 1 clove for dressing). Zest and juice the lemon.
- Roast shrimp + broccoli (oven): On the sheet pan, toss broccoli with 1 Tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper. Push broccoli to one side. Toss shrimp with 1 Tbsp olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, lemon zest, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, oregano, paprika (if using), salt and pepper. Spread shrimp in a single layer.
- Roast: Roast 10–14 minutes total, stirring once halfway, until broccoli is browned and shrimp are pink and just cooked through (check at 10 minutes to avoid overcooking).
- Make the winter crunch salad: In a bowl, whisk mayo (or yogurt), Dijon, vinegar, honey (optional), remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil, remaining minced garlic clove, and a pinch of salt/pepper. Toss with cabbage and cucumber. Add a squeeze more lemon if you like it brighter.
- Serve: Plate shrimp and broccoli with the crunchy salad. Mop up pan juices with bread if using.
