For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of your favorite hot sauce or a dash of cayenne pepper to each foil packet. Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference and what's in season. Bell peppers, onions, or zucchini would be excellent additions. Ensure the foil packets are tightly sealed to trap the steam and cook the ingredients evenly. A double layer of foil can provide extra protection. If you don't have a grill, these foil packets can also be baked in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Season and Seal (5 minutes): Fold up the sides of each foil packet. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil over the mixture in each packet. Add 1 pat of butter, 1 teaspoon of seafood seasoning, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, salt, and pepper to each. Squeeze one lemon wedge into each packet and leave it inside. Gently toss the mixture to combine all the ingredients. Fold the foil over to completely seal each packet, ensuring there are no openings.
