Easy Seafood Shrimp Boil
This is the most simplest version of a shrimp boil. For something truly more authentic, scroll through the blog, I've written other versions!
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 2 ears of corn can sub frozen or can, sliced
- 4 links of andouille sausages sliced (about 1 pound)
- 1 large lemon sliced
- 1 tbs. Cajun Seasoning e.g. Zatarain’s, Old Bay, Tony Chachere’s
- 16 ounces raw jumbo shrimp peeled & deveined
- 1 ½ c. red new potatoes halved
- ¼ c. butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or non-stick spray.
- Spread corn, sausage and lemon evenly on the prepared sheet pan.
- In a bowl combine shrimp, potatoes and Cajun seasoning.
- Layer on top of sheet tray.
- Bake for 14-18 minutes or until shrimp are nice and pink. Pour melted butter on top and enjoy warm.
Notes
Pick larger raw shrimp so the potatoes have time to cook. If you want to use pre-cooked shrimp, either cut potatoes smaller or pop them in a few extra minutes and add shrimp towards the end of baking time.
-If Andouille sausage is too strong or spicy for little eaters, choose a more mild pork sausage, kielbasa or brat.
