Ingredients

Scale

½ pound sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
½ pound raw shrimp, deveined and peeled if preferred
2 ears corn, each cut into 3 pieces
1 cup cherry tomatoes
½ small red onion, sliced thin
1 lemon, cut into wedges
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons melted butter
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 450°F. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 425°F if baking.

  • Tear off 4 pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each about 12×12 inches. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.

  • Divide the steak cubes, shrimp, corn segments, cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and lemon wedges evenly among the foil sheets.

  • Season each packet with minced garlic, Old Bay seasoning, thyme, cumin, and black pepper. Drizzle with melted butter for rich flavor.

  • Fold each foil piece securely to create sealed packets, folding edges tightly to trap steam and flavor.

  • Place packets directly on the grill or in the oven. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Steak should reach an internal temp of 130°F for medium doneness, and shrimp should be pink and opaque.

  • Carefully open the packets (watch for steam!), sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with an extra squeeze of grilled lemon.

Notes

  • Feel free to swap in your favorite vegetables like zucchini or bell peppers for added color and crunch.

  • Use pre-cooked shrimp to reduce cook time slightly—just add during the last 10 minutes.

  • To make it a complete meal, serve with crusty bread or steamed rice to soak up all the buttery juices.

  • Great for camping: prep the packets ahead of time and toss them on a campfire grill grate!
