Foil Pouch Shrimp “Boil”

THIS could be the most delicious, quick and impressive summer recipe you pull off your grill this season! If fresh BC Spot Prawns are available, definitely use those but really any good size fresh prawn will work. This is even more excellent when local corn is available. You can serve this right out of the foil pouch with some freshly baked corn bread, a big salad or just some ice cold craft beer. Don't forget the napkins!

Ingredients:

1 lb. medium shrimp, shells on
1 lb. Andouille sausage, sliced thin
2 lbs. baby potatoes quartered
2 cobs of fresh corn, cut into 8 pieces

Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1 whole lemon, cut into wedges
Parsley to garnish
