Instructions
To Prepare the Shrimp Packets:
Preheat the oven to 475°F.
Tear 4 (16-inch-long) sheets of aluminum foil. Stack the first two sheets on top of each other, and do the same with the other two sheets. Divide the frozen shrimp evenly into the two foil packs, leaving space on the sides and the top.
Place 2 pieces of butter on top of each pile of shrimp. Divide the lemon slices and garlic over the two packs, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold over the sides of the foil and then the top and bottom to completely cover the shrimp.
Place the packets seam-side up and side-by-side on a rimmed baking sheet. Open up them up just enough to pour in the divided 1/3 cup of white wine and then close them again.
Cook shrimp for 20 minutes, or until they are completely cooked through.
To Prepare the Angel Hair or Zucchini Noodles:
To cook angel hair: Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 2 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
To cook zucchini noodles: Place a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle with 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add the 3 cups of zucchini noodles and cook for around 3 minutes or until heated through.
Carefully open the shrimp packets, and add the entire contents to the pasta or zucchini. Add 1/2 cup of the pasta water (if applicable), parsley, and 1 teaspoon of salt; season with pepper; and toss until combined.
To Freeze For Later:
Complete the first two recipe steps, leaving out the white wine drizzle until you're ready to cook.
Stack the packets on top of each other and slide them into a gallon freezer bag. Remove all air from the bag and seal. Freeze for up to 2 months.
When ready to cook, complete remaining steps above.
