Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Preparing the oven first ensures it’s hot and ready when your foil packets are assembled.
Start by peeling and deveining your shrimp if not already done. Halve the baby potatoes so they cook evenly and slice the turkey sausage into bite-sized rounds. If using fresh corn, remove kernels from the cob; if frozen, no need to thaw.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. This mixture will coat your shrimp, potatoes, corn, and sausage, infusing every bite with flavor.
Lay out large pieces of aluminum foil on a baking sheet. Divide the potatoes, corn, sausage, and shrimp evenly among the foil pieces. Drizzle the seasoned olive oil over each portion, then gently toss everything together in the foil so the spices coat all ingredients thoroughly.
Fold the foil over the ingredients and crimp the edges tightly to seal in the steam. Make sure each packet is sealed well to keep the moisture inside, which helps cook the shrimp and soften the potatoes perfectly.
Place the foil packets on the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. The potatoes should be tender, the sausage cooked through, and the shrimp pink and firm.
Carefully open the foil packets—watch out for hot steam! Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and fresh flavor. Serve the packets directly or transfer to plates for a rustic presentation.
