  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  1. Place an equal portion of the shrimp and broccoli mixture in the center of each piece of foil.
  2. Fold the foil over the ingredients to create a sealed packet, making sure there are no openings.
  3. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  4. Carefully open the packets and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
