Quick entree to prepare, these shrimp foil packets pack a whole bunch of flavor. With shrimp, potatoes, tomatoes, zucchini, and corn, all those natural juice just about to come out.
Seasoning with old bay, ground pepper and a bit of lime juice is enough. If you want more flavor, add honey or same more salt.
Browning some extra butter-garlic with fresh chopped parsley for drizzling all over after the shrimps are finished will up the scent a knot. Or you could use it as a dipping sauce as well.
