Ingredients:

Serving

2 lb unpeeled or peeled deveined shrimp, preferably wild american
1 small onion, sliced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
8 bay leaves
2 tbsp fresh oregano leaves
2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp old bay seasoning
2 tsp hot chili paste (such as sambal oelek)
2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into tbsp

Directions:

Using small kitchen scissors, cut shrimp shells along the curved backs. Remove vein, keeping shell intact. (Skip this step if using peeled deveined shrimp.) Toss shrimp and next 9 ingredients in a large bowl.
Place four 16x12 sheets of heavy-duty foil on a work surface. Divide shrimp mixture among sheets. Fold all foil edges toward the center to accommodate the liquid; do not crimp. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 1/4 cup water to each. Crimp tightly to seal. Preheat oven to 325°F. Arrange packets in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Alternatively, build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high. Bake or grill until shrimp are just opaque in center (carefully open 1 packet to check; steam will escape), about 30 minutes. Carefully cut open packets.
