This delicious shrimp dish is courtesy of Chef Curtis Stone. It's a wonderful way to use that bag of frozen shrimp you may have stashed away in the back of your freezer. See Chef Stone's tips below how to segment the oranges. If you want to prep this recipe ahead, the paper parcels can be assembled and refrigerated up to 2 hours before cooking.

8 oz, thin variety, ends trimmed

Shallot
2 item(s), thinly sliced
Table salt
1 pinch(es), or to taste
Black pepper

Uncooked shrimp
24 large, peeled, deveined

2 tsp, fresh, peeled, finely chopped

Instructions
1
To prepare paper, preheat oven to 400°F and place 2 large baking sheets in oven to preheat.
2
Fold four 24 x 16-inch sheets of parchment paper in half so that they are now 12 x 16 inches. Cut each rectangle into a half heart shape with center of heart being folded. Open paper hearts and lay them flat on a work surface.
3
To assemble packages, lay green beans tightly together on right side of each paper heart. Lay carrots on green beans. Sprinkle shallots over and around vegetables then sprinkle vegetables lightly with salt and pepper.
4
Season shrimp with pepper. Place shrimp on top of vegetables and top with orange segments. Sprinkle ginger over, and then drizzle wine over, being careful to keep liquid next to vegetables and shrimp. Place a sprig of thyme atop each.
5
Fold left panel of each heart over fillings to form half heart shape. Starting from top of each parcel, make small, overlapping pleats to seal open sides and create a half-moon shape. Be sure to completely close or crimp package so steam does not escape while cooking.
6
To bake packages, place four paper packages on preheated baking sheets and return baking sheets to oven. Bake for 14 minutes. (Paper will puff up while baking.)
7
Remove parcels from oven and let sit at room temperature for 3 minutes.
8
To serve, carefully cut or tear open paper parcels, being careful of steam, and transfer parcels to serving plates and serve immediately.
