Enjoy all the explosive flavors of a Louisiana shrimp boil without the mess using these easy foil packets. Juicy shrimp, smoked andouille sausage, baby potatoes, and sweet corn are tossed in a bold Cajun seasoning blend and a generous amount of melted butter, then sealed into individual foil packets and grilled or baked.
