Ingredients

Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil
1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined, patted dry
1 Tablespoon olive oil separated
1 Tablespoon jerk seasoning
1 green bell pepper sliced
1 red bell pepper sliced
½ red onion sliced
1 cup chopped pineapple
Salt and pepper about ½ teaspoon each

Instructions

Add shrimp, ½ Tablespoon olive oil, and jerk seasoning to a large bowl and stir to combine. Place in the fridge and allow to marinate for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a large sheet pan by spreading Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil on it. Make sure the dull side is up as this is the side that is non-stick.
Once the oven is preheated, add sliced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, red onion, and pineapple to the lined sheet pan. Drizzle the peppers, onion, and pineapple with ½ Tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, remove the sheet pan and slide the peppers and onions to one side of the sheet pan. Add the marinated shrimp to the cleared side of the sheet pan in a single layer. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the shrimp is cooked through.
Remove and serve with warm tortillas, lettuce wraps, or over rice. Enjoy.

Notes

Place the Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil on the baking sheet dull side up. The dull side has a food-safe, non-stick coating so you don't have to use as much oil.
Pat the shrimp dry before marinating to remove excess water. If you don't they can get a little mushy when baked.
The Jerk seasoning for the shrimp doesn't contain acid, so you can let it marinate in the fridge for up to 8 hours. I like to let it marinate while the veggies are cooking and I find that's enough time for it to soak up those flavors.
