SHRIMP AND VEGGIE PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lay out 4 pieces of parchment paper, 16 inches long and the width of your roll.

• Toss the shrimp with the remaining tablespoon oil, the thyme, herbs de Provence and salt to taste. Divide evenly and put on top of the vegetables on the parchment. Put a lemon round on each and drizzle each with 1 teaspoon of wine or water.
• Fold the parchment paper over the ingredients, crimping and folding to seal, making parchment packages. Arrange the packages on a baking pan and bake until the shrimp are cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Cut a slit in each packet to release the steam, then open the packets. Drizzle each with olive oil and sprinkle with parsley.
• Serve immediately.
