This baked shrimp foil pack meal is ready in under 30 minutes. Shrimp is seasoned to perfection with garlic and herbs. The easiest way to bake shrimp in your oven!

Ingredients you need for the Baked Shrimp and Broccoli Foil Packs with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce

1 lb (450g) medium raw shrimp (peeled and deveined, tail-on or tail-off)2 tablespoons butter, diced (or ghee, or olive oil)1 tablespoon minced garlic1 teaspoon Italian seasoning1/4 teaspoon onion powder2 tablespoons vegetable or chicken stock, dividedSalt and pepper, to taste1/4 teaspoon smoked paprikaRed chili pepper flakes, optionalJuice of 1/2 lemon1 large head of broccoli, broken into floretsFresh chopped parsley, for garnish

Directions

1. To make thesebaked shrimp foil packs: Preheat your oven to 425ºF (220ºC). Cut 2 sheets of 14 by 12-inch (35 x 30 cm) heavy-duty aluminum foil then lay each piece separately on the countertop. In a small bowl, combine the ingredients forthe spice mix: Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika (plus powdered stock if using, see notes).

2. In a shallow plate, add shrimp and sprinkle with the spice mix, coating on all sides.

3. Divide shrimp onto the aluminum foil near the center then place broccoli florets to one side of the shrimp.

4.Add garlic over broccoli and shrimp, then sprinkle with lemon juice, red crushed chili pepper flakes (if using) and finish with salt and pepper. Divide butter pieces evenly among the shrimp foil packets, layering them over the shrimp and broccoli.

5. Add a tablespoon of vegetable stock in each foil packet and wrap packets in and crimp edges together then wrap ends up. Don’t wrap too tight – keep a little extra space inside for heat to circulate.

6.Transfer to a baking sheet and bake shrimp foil packetsin the oven, sealed side upward until shrimps have cooked through, about 15 minutes.

7.Carefully unwrap thebakedshrimpand broccoli foil packetsthen garnish with fresh parsley and a slice of lemon. Enjoy!

Tips for cooking shrimps

  • We like to use jumbo 16/20 size shrimp for most of our recipes, but you could use any size really. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • You can use shrimp with tails on or off. On Eatwell101, we tend to keep ours on for a visual impact as they photograph better ;).
  • Try to find fresh wild-caught shrimp. Frozen shrimp is good too, but fresh will always have a better flavor.
  • When buying frozen shrimp, choose thosethat are already deveined. Their shell is easier to remove once thawed.
  • Thaw frozen shrimp overnight in the refrigerator; or if you’re in a rush, soak in cold water and change the water every 5 minutes.
