Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add baby potatoes and parboil for 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the parboiled potatoes, shrimp, sliced trumpet mushrooms, sausage, onion and corn.
Add minced garlic, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
Tear four large sheets of heavy-duty foil. Spoon about 1/4 of the mixture into the center of each.
Top each packet with one pat of butter and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Fold the sides and ends of the foil in tightly to seal.
Preheat grill to 400°F. Place foil packets on the grill and cook for 10 minutes per side (20 minutes total).
Carefully open packets (Watch for steam!), and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

This recipe uses King Trumpet mushrooms

King Trumpet Flavor and texture

King trumpet mushrooms have a delicate, nutty flavor and a firm, meaty texture. When cooked, the king trumpet’s texture mimics seafood, like scallops. In fact, when its thick stem is sliced crosswise, the result can appear just like scallops, too. But the culinary creativity doesn’t end there; cut large king trumpet mushrooms lengthwise for slices that are ideal for grilling, sautéing, roasting, and any other cooking application that puts them at the center of the plate. They can also be fork-shredded for serving as a meaty option for barbeque sandwiches, tacos, or serving atop grilled meats.
