2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 whole lime(s) Lime juice (fresh)
1 medium pepper(s) Orange bell pepper (thinly sliced)

1/2 tsp Green onion, scallion, ramp (thinly sliced; green part only)

Instructions


1. Preheat a gas or charcoal grill over high heat.

3. Fold up all 4 sides of each foil packet. Add olive oil, taco seasoning and lime juice; gently toss to combine. Fold the sides of the foil over the shrimp, covering completely and sealing the packets closed.

4. Place foil packets on the grill and cook until just cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.

5. Served immediately with tortillas, garnished with cilantro, if desired.
