Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Cut 4 large sheets of aluminum foil (about 12x12 inches each).
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the marinade. Let the shrimp sit for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
Divide the diced pineapple, red and yellow bell peppers, and red onion evenly among the 4 foil sheets, placing them in the center of each sheet.
Top each vegetable pile with a portion of the marinated shrimp and drizzle any remaining marinade over the top.
Fold the foil sheets into packets by bringing the opposite sides together and rolling them tightly to seal. Then, fold the ends up to ensure no steam escapes during cooking.
Place the sealed packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the vegetables are tender.
Carefully open the packets (watch out for hot steam) and serve immediately over cooked rice or as is for a lighter option.
