  8. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp and vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
  9. Divide the mixture among large sheets of heavy-duty foil and seal tightly into packets.
  10. Place the foil packets on the grill.
  11. Grill for 12 to 15 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking.
  12. Remove from the grill and carefully open the packets.
  13. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Pre-cooking the potatoes ensures they become perfectly tender on the grill.
  • Andouille sausage can be used for a spicier variation.
  • Add crab legs, scallops, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra variety.
  • Foil packets can be assembled several hours ahead and refrigerated until grilling.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
