Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound garlic herb sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
Vegetables:
- 2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears of corn)
- 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
Seasonings and Oil:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Ignite the grill to medium-high heat, creating an optimal cooking environment around 400°F for these zesty seafood parcels.
- Craft generous aluminum foil sheets large enough to envelop the vibrant medley of proteins and vegetables comfortably.
- Combine succulent shrimp, sweet corn kernels, crisp asparagus spears, and hearty garlic herb sausage in a spacious mixing vessel.
- Lavish the ingredients with olive oil, then shower with a harmonious blend of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, kosher salt, and freshly cracked black pepper.
- Gently tumble the ingredients, ensuring each morsel receives an even coating of aromatic seasonings.
- Distribute the seasoned mixture equitably across the prepared foil sheets, positioning the ingredients centrally.
- Meticulously fold the foil’s edges, creating tightly sealed packets that will trap moisture and intensify flavors during grilling.
- Transfer the assembled packets onto the preheated grill grates, allowing them to cook undisturbed for 15-20 minutes.
- Verify doneness by confirming shrimp have transformed to a delicate pink hue and vegetables have reached a tender consistency.
- Remove packets with care, cautiously unfurling to release aromatic steam, and serve immediately with optional zesty lemon wedges.
Notes
- Swap sausage with plant-based alternatives for vegetarian friends, ensuring equal flavor and protein content.
- Ensure shrimp are deveined and patted dry before seasoning to prevent excess moisture and achieve better caramelization.
- Keep asparagus pieces uniform in size for even cooking and consistent texture throughout the packet.
- Use heavy-duty aluminum foil to prevent tearing and potential leakage during grilling process.
