Paper or foil Shrimp Packets Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Get all of the ingredients together.
  • if you have something you think would taste yummy steamed with shrimp, feel free to try it.
  • I always use garlic and ginger though.
  • Make the marinade sauce and marinade the shrimp for 1/2 hour to 1 hour, stirring 2-3 times.
  • A shorter time will leave more shrimp flavor.
  • A longer time will have a stronger teriyaki flavor.
  • I usually go for 45 minutes.
  • Once you're ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375 and make some rectangles of foil or parchment paper.
  • Place a shrimp, a slice of ginger, a couple slices of garlic, some scallions, and a chili slice in the center.
  • Make a sealed packet by folding over the edges several times.
  • It's important to try and get the packet sealed air tight. The packets are suppose to steam while they cook so that all the flavor stays inside.
  • If they aren't air tight, they'll still cook just fine, but they won't have as much flavor. If in doubt, try using a larger piece of foil.
  • Place the packets on a cookie sheet and cook them in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes.
  • I usually just serve them sealed in the packets and let people open them themselves.
  • BE CAREFUL!
  • After they come out of the oven they'll be filled with super heated steam. it's easy to get burned as you tear them open.
