Preparation

  • Preheat your grill or oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  • Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil, each about 12 inches square.
  • In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, sausage, bell pepper, red onion, and corn.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well-coated.
  • Divide the mixture evenly among the four pieces of foil.
  • Fold the sides of each foil over the mixture and seal it tightly so that steam doesn’t escape.

Cooking

  • Place the foil packs on the grill or in the oven. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are fully cooked and pink.
  • Carefully open the foil packs, as steam will escape. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
