  • Use scissors to cut out the heart shape & open up the heart.
  • Combine corn with snap peas and bell pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer one-fourth of the shrimp to one side of each open heart fairly close to the crease and leaving at least a 1-inch border around the edges for folding. (Reserve the marinade.)

  • Close the packet to cover the ingredients.
  • Starting at the top, seal the packet by folding the edges together in a series of small, tight folds.
  • Twist the tip of the packet and tuck it underneath to help keep the packet closed.
  • Place the packets on a large rimmed baking sheet (packets may overlap slightly).
  • Bake until the shrimp are just cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. (Carefully open one package to check for doneness - be cautious of the steam.).

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb medium raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 cup sliced mushroom
2 cups fresh broccoli florets (frozen would work, but thaw and drain before using)
1 small red bell pepper, cut into strips
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon grated, minced fresh ginger or 1/2 teaspoon grated, minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to med-high or oven to 450 degrees.
  • Use either foil cooking bags, or pieces of aluminum foil to make a cooking pouch.
  • Add shrimp and vegetables, top with garlic, ginger and oil.
  • To grill: Place foil pouch on grill rack, cook for 15-20 minutes, or until shrimp is no longer pink.
  • To bake in oven: Place pouch in cake pan or cookie sheet with sides.
  • Bake 25-30 minutes, or until shrimp is no longer pink.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. Mise en place (French for "put in place") is a cooking technique that helps you stay organized and efficient in the kitchen.
  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final dish. Look for fresh, seasonal vegetables and seafood that are brightly colored and free of blemishes.
  • Don't overcrowd the packets: Make sure there is enough space for the shrimp and vegetables to cook evenly. If the packets are too crowded, the food will steam instead of roast.
  • Season the packets well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices to flavor the shrimp and vegetables. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Cook the packets over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the shrimp and vegetables. If you cook the packets over low heat, the food will be more likely to steam and become mushy.
  • Let the packets rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute and the flavors to meld together. Let the packets rest for at least 5 minutes before opening them.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and veggie packets are a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. They are perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious meal on the table in no time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give shrimp and veggie packets a try. You won't be disappointed!
