Directions

  2. Cut 4 sheets of 14 by 12-inch heavy duty aluminum foil then lay each piece separately on countertop.
  3. Divide shrimp among packets near center then place asparagus to one side of the shrimp (going the long direction of the foil).

  5. Sprinkle over garlic (1 tsp per packet) and lemon zest then season with salt and pepper. Divide butter pieces evenly among packets layering them over the shrimp and asparagus.
