Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Foil Packets are loaded with shrimp, sausage, summer vegetables and tossed in cajun spices. These are quick and easy and packed with big flavor!
After I made this delicious Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Skillet, Â I knew that a foil pack of this had to be made! Our family LOVED the cajun shrimp and sausage skillet so much and I might have loved it even more because it was so dang easy. Foil packets are all of the rage right now and I knew this one would be delicious.
Foil packets are such a great meal in one with easy clean up. They are great gilled, baked, or cooked over a campfire. The great thing about the shrimp and sausage combo is that they cook quickly and are ready to devour in no time at all.
The shrimp and sausage combo is amazing but it is even better surrounded by crisp and tender summer vegetables. I love using zucchini, banana squash, asparagus, and bell peppers. They all cook together quickly.
These really are so easy to just chop the veggies, add the shrimp and sausage and toss in cajun seasoning. I love easy meals lately and you do not have to compromise on taste or flavor to get big bold flavor in these foil packets!
I baked mine this time but I usually grill my foil packets or cook them over a fire. Since I am pretty serious about losing the baby weight now, they make great meal prep. It is a healthy and delicious summer meal that I know you guys are going to love.

What could I use in place of Cajun seasoning?
You could try this instead! Homemade Blackened Seasoning
I turned this into a sheet pan meal with fabulous results!
It looks so delicious! What are the green herbs you used that we can see in the picture? It kind of looks like cilantro? I would like to try using the same herbs that you used. Thank you
Will probably try and make this weekend ~ is the shrimp raw or pre-cooked?
I used raw shrimp that has been peeled and deveined.
Excellent flavors, esp the sausage!
VERY GOOD! DEF A KEEPER!
Thank u for the best Recipe
Very delicious, but used broccoli to mine raw and it was still hard at 18 minutes. Think I’ll steam any veggies prior to.
Is the sausage pre cooked or raw like the shrimp?
This was great! The Cajun seasoning was definitely spicy since we aren’t it use to this seasoning. We like spice so this was good, but I’d still cut back a little in the future.
Thank u for the best Recipe
Ok the flavor is really good, but veggies came out mushy. Any suggestions?
Oh no! I am sorry they came out mushy. I would recommend using less oil on them and higher temperature for them. Hope that helps! XOXO
Do you have any Marcos for this dish?
It was absolutely delicious.

These are delicious! I made them last night and my husband and I both loved them. I added garlic powder to ours along with the other seasonings and I used smoked sausage so the sausage was already cooked. I too wondered how they would all cook at the same time but with the sausage being cooked that I used it took exactly 15 minutes and had this yummy broth which we put over the mixed grain rice. Looking forward to making again and trying the foil packet way. Thanks for sharing your recipes!
The recipe does not call for pre cooking the veggies but in one of the comments it says they are precooked? Can you provide more info? Thanks!
No, precooking! It will all cook in the foil. You are welcome to precook everything if wanted and then basically heating it up when you are camping or at your home. That is the great thing about foil packets! Enjoy! XOXO
These sound wonderful. I was wondering if these can be prepped and frozen for individual servings?
Yes, that is a great idea! I would love to hear how they turned out after cooking them again! XOXO
How many bet carbs are in 1 serving? Sorry if I missed this. Thank you.
