You guys, I truly do adore shrimp foil dinners with an Asian flair. It’s like, how does anyone even eat shrimp that hasn’t been soaked in soy sauce?! And some worcestershire? With a pinch(es) of pepper flakes, and all that jazz? Wrapped up in Reynolds® Aluminum Foil?

And even more than just that. Rice tucked underneath the shrimp, broccoli right beside it? This is how we DO IT!

    HOW TO MAKE SHRIMP IN FOIL PACKETS

    The trick to these shrimp foil packets is quite simple: gather all your ingredients before starting. In fact, that’s what you should always do – all ingredients should be in front of you before turnin’ up the heat!

    • When ready to begin, I’ll have you soak some 5-minute-rice in lukewarm water, and then you’ll arrange the rice (sans water) over each foil packet.

    • Next, you will want to arrange the broccoli alongside the rice, with the shrimp right next to it.
    • We are going to finish this off with a pour of that lovely sauce over everything, and wrap it all up for a quick roast in the oven.

    ENJOY!
