Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare a grill for medium heat.

2. Prepare the Foil Packets

Tear four large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil.

Divide the shrimp, sausage, bell peppers, red onion, garlic, and corn evenly among the sheets.

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if using.

3. Seal the Packets

Fold the foil over the ingredients and crimp edges to seal tightly, leaving a little space inside for steam to circulate.

4. Cook

Oven: Place packets on a baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes until shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

Grill: Place packets on the grill and cook for 15–20 minutes, turning halfway through.

5. Serve

Carefully open the foil packets (watch for hot steam).

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges for a fresh, bright finish.
