1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

What You'll Need To Know

Cut four sheets of foil, about 12-inches long. Divide shrimp, bell peppers and onion into 4 equal portions and add to the center of each foil in a single layer.

Fold up all 4 sides of each foil packet.

Add oil, smoked paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, pepper and lime juice; gently toss to combine.

Fold the sides of the foil over the shrimp, covering completely and sealing the packets closed.
