Equipment

  • Grill
  • aluminum foil
  • parchment paper
  • large bowl
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

Marinade and Seasonings

  • ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup white wine
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 lemons zest and juice of two for marinade, remaining for serving
  • 4 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes optional
  • 4 teaspoons chopped rosemary
  • ½ cup honey
  • Kosher salt to taste

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 medium zucchinis, trimmed and sliced into half-moons
  • ½ green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • ½ white onion, thinly sliced
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Cut six sheets of aluminum foil and six sheets of parchment paper to roughly 12 x 12-inches long. Layer the parchment paper on top of each foil sheet. Turn in the sides to create a bowl shape.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, wine, garlic, the zest and juice of two of the lemons, smoked paprika, chili flakes (if using), rosemary and honey. Season with salt to taste.
  • Add the shrimp, zucchini, peppers, and onion to the bowl. Mix to coat.
  • Divide the shrimp and vegetable mixture evenly into your foil bowls, spooning in the juices as well. Seal the packets.
  • Heat the grill to medium-high heat (400-450°F). Slice the remaining lemon into wedges for serving.
  • Place the packets on un-oiled grates with the folded sides up. Cover and grill for 5 to 8 minutes. Check one packet to ensure the shrimp and veggies are cooked.
  • Remove the packets from the grill and serve immediately with chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Notes

Use heavy-duty foil for grilling to avoid ripping. Adding parchment paper on top of the foil is recommended for better results.
