Notes
- Adjust the chili flakes to your level of spiciness. Or omit them altogether, these Shrimp Foil Packets still taste divine!
- Shrimp will quickly turn from juicy to overdone, so do not overcook shrimp.
- If you're using frozen shrimp, ensure they are fully thawed and then rinsed well and drained.
- You can swap to lemon instead of lime, for a twist of citrus flavor!
- Using pre-shelled and deveined shrimp is great for ease.
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor.
