Place steak and shrimp on a rack below vegetables and roast both pans for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, swap rack positions of the pans, bringing the lower pan up, and placing the other pan on the rack below. Continue roasting until shrimp is pink and tightly curled, steak is cooked to medium, and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes more. An instant read thermometer inserted in center of steak should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) . If steak or vegetables require more time, remove shrimp to a plate and keep warm, while other ingredients continue cooking. Squeeze juice of half a lime over contents of each sheet pan.

Short Ribs Braised with Mushrooms and Tomatoes
This short ribs recipe slowly braises short ribs with easy-to-find dried porcini mushrooms (for real, ask someone at the fancy grocery store and they'll find them for you!) until they turn into a triumph of fork-tender goodness. I love these short ribs over mashed potatoes, but the rich tomato and mushroom gravy is fantastic over soft polenta as well. I really hope you give this cool-weather wonder a try.
