Ingredients:

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/2 lb smoked sausage (like Andouille or kielbasa), sliced

1 cup baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large

1 cup bell peppers, sliced (any color)

1 small onion, sliced

2-3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

1 tsp dried oregano or Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley or green onions for garnish

Lemon wedges (optional)

 

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prep the foil packets: Tear off 4 large pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil (about 12×12 inches).

3. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, toss shrimp, sausage slices, baby potatoes, bell peppers, onion, and garlic with olive oil, paprika, cayenne (if using), oregano, salt, and pepper.

4. Assemble packets: Divide the mixture evenly among the foil sheets. Fold the foil over the mixture and seal the edges tightly to create packets.

5. Bake: Place packets on a baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes until shrimp are pink and cooked through, and potatoes are tender.

6. Serve: Carefully open packets (watch for steam), garnish with fresh parsley or green onions, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
