Tips for the Best Foil Pack Dinner

Use Uniform Steak Cubes

Cut the steak into even pieces so everything cooks at the same rate.

Roast the Potatoes First

Starting the potatoes before assembling the foil packets ensures they become perfectly tender.

Don’t Overcook the Shrimp

Shrimp cook very quickly. Once they turn pink and opaque, they’re done.

Fresh Garlic Makes a Difference

Fresh garlic gives the butter sauce a bold, rich flavor that’s hard to beat.

Use Heavy-Duty Foil

It helps prevent leaks and keeps the juices sealed inside during cooking.

Serving Suggestions

Pair this Steak & Shrimp Foil Pack Dinner with:

Garlic bread

Caesar salad

Grilled asparagus

Roasted broccoli

Coleslaw

Fresh lemonade

Sweet tea

Storage Instructions

Refrigerator

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Freezer

Freeze the cooked steak and potatoes for up to 2 months. For the best texture, prepare shrimp fresh rather than freezing after cooking.

Reheating

Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10–15 minutes, or warm gently in a skillet with a splash of melted butter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I grill the foil packets instead of baking them?

Yes. Grill over medium-high heat for 15–20 minutes, turning once halfway through.

What’s the best cut of steak?

Sirloin offers excellent value and tenderness, while ribeye provides extra richness and marbling.

Can I use frozen shrimp?

Yes. Thaw completely and pat dry before seasoning to prevent excess moisture.

Can I customize the vegetables?

Absolutely. Bell peppers, mushrooms, zucchini, asparagus, and onions are all great additions.
