An Easy Buttery Favorite
Shrimp boil foil packets are an easy dinner that requires very little prep. Challenge Butter makes an amazing garlicky buttery sauce with great flavor. Challenge butter is churned fresh daily and contains no additives, preservatives, hormones, or dyes. Just real buttery goodness. Foil packets let each guest customize their own packet with their favorite additions. These can be prepared ahead of time and cooked on the grill or in the oven. Like most foil packets, these require almost no clean-up!
Ingredients
MEAT: You’ll want to use large boiler shrimp and your favorite smoked sausage. You can also add in bay scallops, salmon, crawfish, crab, even bacon! VEGGIES: The potatoes are slightly cooked before putting the packets together. This helps them cook quickly along with the corn, shrimp, and sausage. Feel free to add in asparagus spears, bell peppers, or even green beans! FLAVOR: Challenge Butter adds the best flavor since it is made the old-fashioned way; from the freshest milk and cream from happy cows! These packets are simply seasoned with a sprinkle of old bay, cajun seasoning, and some garlic. If you like a little bit of heat, add a few dashes of Tabasco!
How to Make Shrimp Boil Foil Packets
These are yummy, easy to make, and customizable for summer BBQ time! These packets are great served with extra melted butter for dipping and dunking and a slice of cornbread.
Tips for Perfect Packets
Heavy-duty aluminum foil will stay intact during the cooking process as well as during serving and eating. Since the shrimp cooks quickly, pre-cook the potatoes and corn so it all finishes at the same time. Avoid overcrowding the packets so the shrimp and sausage heat through properly. Make these ahead of time. When it’s time to eat, simply pull packets from the fridge and cook them!
Leftovers
Remove leftover shrimp boil ingredients from their packets and place in an airtight container. They should keep for about 3 days in the refrigerator. Reheat in a fresh foil packet on the grill, or on a baking sheet in the oven.
