Parmesan Garlic Butter Shrimp Foil Packs
Enjoy flavorful shrimp cooked in garlic butter and Parmesan cheese, all in convenient foil packs. Perfect for busy nights and easy clean-up.
Ingredients
For the shrimp
- 1.25 LB raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp garlic pepper
- 1 tsp old bay seasoning
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- Chopped as needed parsley for garnishing
For cooking
- 1 cube butter, softened
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 3 pieces aluminum foil large enough to hold shrimp packs
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (approximately 200°C). Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
- Rinse and dry the shrimp. In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with garlic salt, garlic pepper, and old bay seasoning. Mix well to coat the shrimp.
- Divide the shrimp equally among the center of the three foil pieces.
- In a separate bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic. Add 1 tablespoon of the garlic butter to each shrimp pack.
- Bring the opposite sides of the foil up and fold them over. Roll in the remaining sides to close each packet securely.
Cooking
- Place the foil packs in the oven and cook for 15 minutes.
- Carefully remove the packs from the oven. Open them slowly to avoid steam. Top each pack with equal parts of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Close the packs again briefly to let the cheese melt.
Serving
- Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve the shrimp foil packs directly from the oven for a fun and interactive meal.
- You can place the packs on plates and let everyone open their own. Consider serving with crusty bread or over a bed of rice or pasta.
Notes
Make sure to seal the foil packets tightly to prevent any steam from escaping. You can add veggies like asparagus or bell peppers for a complete meal. Adjust seasonings to taste; cayenne pepper can be added for heat.
