Provencal Shrimp and Veggies in Foil #FishFridayFoodies

Colorful, healthy, nutritious and delicious, this easy one packet dinner is ready in minutes.  Gorgeous to look at and even better to eat!!


We are celebrating Grilled Fish/Seafood this month with the Fish Friday Foodies......



Stacy of Food Lust People Love is hosting our group this month and asked us all to share a recipe cooked outdoors.  It could be over gas or coals as long as it was on a grill.  Count me in coach.  We grill nearly daily during the summer months.

Here is what the others grilled up to share today.........

Would you like to join Fish Friday Foodies? We post and share new seafood/fish recipes on the third Friday of the month. To join our group please email me at wendyklik1517 (at) gmail.com. Visit our Facebook page and Pinterest page for more wonderful fish and seafood recipe ideas



It is the marinade that makes this dish so wonderful.  Olive oil, lots of garlic, and Herbs de Provence  are combined and tossed with the shrimp and vegetables right in the foil packet meaning no dirty pans to clean up afterwards.


I lined a baking sheet with foil making sure it was large enough to create a packet covering the contents and allow steam to build.


You want to make sure your vegetables are diced small enough that they will cook tender in just 15-20 minutes so that your shrimp stay nice and tender.


Slice up a fresh crispy baguette.  Open a bottle of Provence Rose wine.  Carpe Diem!!
