  • 1 lb baby yellow potatoes, quartered
  • 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 5 tbsp butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

How to Make Garlic Butter Steak, Shrimp, Potatoes & Green Beans

1. Prepare the sheet pan. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Arrange the steak, quartered potatoes, and green beans on a large baking sheet.

2. Season everything. Drizzle with olive oil and season with Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and salt. Toss until evenly coated.

3. Start roasting. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until the steak begins to brown and the vegetables start to soften.

4. Add the shrimp. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Move the steak and vegetables slightly aside and arrange the shrimp in a single layer.

5. Add the garlic butter. Mix the melted butter with the minced garlic. Pour the garlic butter evenly over the shrimp, steak, potatoes, and green beans.

6. Finish baking. Return the sheet pan to the oven and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through and the steak reaches your preferred doneness.

7. Finish and serve. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and finish with chopped parsley. Gently toss the steak and shrimp with the vegetables and buttery pan juices before serving.

Tips for the Best Garlic Butter Steak & Shrimp Sheet Pan

  • Cut the potatoes evenly. This helps them roast at the same rate and finish tender at the same time as everything else.
  • Add the shrimp partway through roasting. Since shrimp cook fast, adding them after the steak and vegetables have had a head start keeps everything perfectly timed.
  • Don’t overcook the shrimp. Watch closely during those final minutes so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
  • Toss everything gently at the end. This coats each ingredient in the buttery pan juices without breaking anything apart.

What to Serve with Garlic Butter Steak, Shrimp, Potatoes & Green Beans

This dish is a complete meal on its own, but crusty bread for soaking up the extra garlic butter is always a welcome addition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different cut of steak?

Yes, sirloin, ribeye, or strip steak all work well cut into bite-sized pieces.

Can I use frozen shrimp?

Yes, just thaw completely and pat dry before adding to the sheet pan so they cook evenly.

Can I make this less spicy?

Yes, simply omit the red pepper flakes and use a milder Cajun seasoning if you prefer less heat.
