Preparation
1
Start Prep

  • Preheat a well-oiled grill to medium-high heat. Wash and dry produce.

  • Open and drain potatoes. Drain corn; pat dry with paper towels. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Quarter lemon; halve each wedge lengthwise, removing any seeds.

  • OVEN ALTERNATIVE: Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2
Season Shrimp & Veggies

  • Rinse shrimp* under cold water; pat dry with paper towels.

  • In a large bowl, combine shrimp, diced salamipotatoes, corn, scallion whitesonion paste, half the lemon pieces, and a large drizzle of oil. Add Old Bay Seasoning, Cajun Spice Blend, and ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings); toss to coat.

3
Assemble Packets

  • Cut two 18-inch-long pieces of foil (four pieces for 4 servings); arrange on a work surface.

  • Dividing evenly, arrange shrimp and veggies in center of foil. Top each with 1 TBSP butter.

  • Fold foil over shrimp and veggies, then cinch into packets.

4
Grill Packets

  • Place shrimp and veggie packets, cinched sides up, on grill.

  • Close lid and grill until potatoes are tender and shrimp are cooked through, 12-15 minutes. TIP: When checking for doneness, carefully open the packets with tongs—there will be steam!

  • OVEN ALTERNATIVE: Place shrimp and veggie packets, cinched sides up, on a baking sheet (two baking sheets for 4 servings). Roast on top rack (top and middle racks for 4) until potatoes are tender and shrimp are cooked through, 30-35 minutes.

5
Finish Prep & Make Salad

  • Meanwhile, trim and discard root end from lettuce; chop leaves into bite-size pieces.

  • In a medium bowl, combine lettuce, scallion greens, and ranch dressing; lightly season with salt. Toss to evenly coat.

6
Serve

  • Divide shrimp and veggie packets between plates; carefully open tops of packets. Squeeze remaining lemon wedges over the top. Serve with salad on the side. TIP: If you like things spicy, serve with your favorite hot sauce!
