Description

Delicious shrimp foil packets cooked with sausage, corn, and potatoes, infused with buttery Cajun seasoning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 oz Andouille sausage, sliced
  • 1 cup corn, fresh or frozen
  • 1 lb small red or Yukon gold potatoes, cubed
  • 4 tbsp butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning or Old Bay
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (about 400–425°F).
  2. Prepare heavy-duty foil pieces (about 12–15 inches long) and lay them flat.
  3. Toss shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes in a large bowl with melted butter and seasoning.
  4. Divide the mixture among the foil sheets, leaving room to seal.
  5. Seal each packet tightly, creating an air pocket for steam.
  6. Cook on the grill for 15–20 minutes or in the oven until shrimp are opaque and potatoes are tender.
  7. Open carefully and serve, optionally squeezing fresh lemon over the top.

Notes

Double-wrap foil if concerned about leaks. Shrimp can be substituted with scallops or firm fish if allergic.
