Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sirloin steak cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 lb baby potatoes halved and parboiled
  • 1 zucchini chopped
  • 1 yellow squash chopped
  • 1 red onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Heavy-duty aluminum foil
  • Large Bowl
  • Grill or Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high (400°F) or oven to 400°F. Parboil the halved baby potatoes for 10 minutes until just fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the steak cubes and shrimp. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, and fresh parsley to create the sauce.
  4. Tear off four 18x12-inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Divide the parboiled potatoes, chopped zucchini, yellow squash, and red onion among the sheets.
  5. Top the vegetables with the seasoned steak and shrimp mixture.
  6. Pour the garlic butter sauce evenly over the contents of each packet.
  7. Seal the foil packets by bringing the long sides together and folding twice. Fold in the shorter sides to create a completely sealed packet.
  8. Place packets on the grill or a baking sheet in the oven. Cook for 15-20 minutes on the grill (flipping once) or 18-22 minutes in the oven, until steak is cooked to your desired doneness and shrimp are pink and opaque.
  9. Carefully open the packets, garnish with extra parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use heavy-duty foil to prevent tearing.
Do not overcook, as shrimp can become tough.
Customize with your favorite vegetables like asparagus or bell peppers.
