Instructions
1. Prep the Oven & Tray
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking tray with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Lightly grease if needed.
2. Season Everything
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, olive oil, garlic, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
Place steak cubes, shrimp, broccoli, and corn in separate bowls. Drizzle each with some of the garlic butter mixture and toss well to coat evenly.
3. Start with Steak & Veggies
Arrange the steak, broccoli, and corn evenly on the tray, leaving space between pieces so they roast instead of steam. Roast for 12–15 minutes, flipping the steak halfway for even browning.
4. Add the Shrimp
Remove the tray from the oven and add the shrimp, spreading them out in a single layer. Return to the oven and roast for another 6–8 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the steak is cooked to your desired doneness.
5. Finish & Rest
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. This allows the steak juices to redistribute. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and squeeze lemon juice over the top for a bright finish.

Tips & Variations
-
Don’t overcook shrimp: Add them later so they stay juicy.
-
Use a meat thermometer: Steak is perfect at 130–135°F (medium-rare).
-
Swap veggies: Green beans, bell peppers, or zucchini work great.
-
Extra flavor: Finish with grated Parmesan or a splash of soy sauce.
