Garnish fresh with parsley and lemon for brightness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen shrimp and corn?
Yes! Just thaw shrimp fully and pat dry. Frozen corn works well too, but fresh will deliver crisp texture.
Is the sauce very spicy?
It’s moderate heat—balanced by honey mustard and mayo. Adjust cayenne and chipotle to taste.
Can I make this ahead?
Absolutely. Prepare and season everything in advance, then bake fresh before dinner.
