Servings: 2 foil packs
Ingredients
- 1 lb raw shrimp peeled and deveined jumbo or extra-large are best
- 1 lb fresh broccoli florets
- 1 medium lemon cut into wedges
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika

- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper or to taste
Optional garnish:
- freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
- Preheat the grill over medium-high heat. Grease or spray 2 large sheets of foil.
- Make the seasoned lemon garlic butter. Melt the butter in a covered, microwave-safe bowl. Then stir in the minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Pour over the shrimp and toss to coat.
- Place the shrimp and broccoli next to each other on top of the greased foil and pour any remaining garlic butter over the shrimp. Add a lemon wedge.
- Seal the foil around everything by folding and pinch closed. You want to make a boat so that no liquid escapes.
- Place the foil packs on the preheated grill and shut the lid. Allow the packs to cook for 10 - 15 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and fully cooked.
- Carefully remove the packs from the grill with mitts and transfer to plates. Garnish with lemon wedges, serve and enjoy!
Notes
If you are using frozen shrimp, thaw them by running under cold water, then pat dry.
