Garlic Shrimp Foil Packs Recipes

GARLIC BUTTER AND SHRIMP FOIL PACKS

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill.
• Place large sheet of heavy-duty foil or double layer of regular foil on work surface. Rub foil with a little olive oil.
• Arrange slices of polenta in center of foil. Drizzle with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• In medium bowl, toss shrimp with melted butter, parsley, garlic and lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. Add shrimp on top of polenta, getting all the butter out of the bowl.
• Bring short ends of foil together, and fold twice to seal; fold in sides to seal, leaving room for steam.
• Place packets on grill over medium-high heat. Cover grill; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until shrimp are pink.
• Remove from grill; unwrap and top with additional fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

FOIL-PACKET SHRIMP BOIL

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Microwave the potatoes until softened but not fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Let cool a few minutes, then dice.
• Put 4 tablespoons butter in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted. Add the potatoes, corn, garlic and Old Bay and toss well; season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Tear off four 18-inch-long sheets of foil. Divide the vegetables among the foil sheets, piling them in the middle. Add the shrimp to the same bowl. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and a pinch of salt and pepper; toss well. Add the shrimp to the vegetable piles.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons wine over each pile of vegetables and shrimp. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into 4 pieces and add a piece to each pile. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold twice; fold in the sides to form a packet.
• Grill the foil packets until the potatoes are tender and the shrimp is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and let stand 5 minutes. Carefully open the packets and sprinkle with the parsley; serve with the lemon wedges.

SHRIMP IN FOIL

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, parsley, garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Add shrimp and mix well. Set aside to marinade for 10 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Lay out a large piece of aluminum foil and fold in half. Fold up edges to create a pouch in the middle. Place marinated shrimp in the middle and drizzle with lemon juice. Lightly close pouch.
• Cook on the hot grill until shrimp are pink and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
