      Instructions

      Pre-Cook the Potatoes
      1. Microwave or boil the potatoes until just tender, approximately 5–7 minutes. Drain and allow them to cool slightly before assembling the packets.
      Assemble the Foil Packets
      1. Cut six large pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each about 18 inches in length.
      2. Evenly divide the pre-cooked potatoes, clams, mussels, shrimp, cod, sausage, corn and tomatoes among the foil sheets, placing the ingredients in the center of each.
      3. Top each portion with lemon slices and minced garlic. Drizzle approximately 2 tablespoons of wine or broth over each packet.
      4. Add 1 teaspoon of I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter to each packet. Combine the spices and evenly divide among the packets.
      Seal the Packets
      1. Fold the long sides of the foil over the ingredients, then fold the short ends to securely seal each packet. Be sure to leave a little space inside to allow steam to circulate during cooking.
      Grill
      1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F). Place the sealed packets directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the clams and mussels have opened and the shrimp and cod are opaque and cooked through.
      Serve
      1. Carefully open the packets—caution: hot steam will escape. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. Serve immediately, accompanied by lemon wedges.
