Shrimp & Sausage (Low Country) Boil

Ingredients

  • 1 ear corn

  • 5-6 new potatoes

  • 1/2 lb shrimp

  • 6 oz andouille sausage

  • 2 c water

  • 1 Tbsp hot sauce

  • 1 Tbsp Old Bay seasoning

  • 1 tsp onion extract or 1/4 onion puree

  • 1/4 tsp creole seasoning

Directions

Here's how to do it in three easy steps:

Fill a skillet with 2c water and bring it to a boil. Add the Old Bay, hot sauce and onion extract and stir well. This will give your boil a nice kick and make your kitchen smell like the ocean.

Add the potatoes and sausage and cook for 5 minutes. Then add the corn and cook for another 5 minutes. The potatoes will soak up the flavor of the sausage.

Finally, add the shrimp and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until they turn pink. Don't overcook them or they will become rubbery. Drain the water and dump everything onto a large platter or a table covered with newspaper.

Top with a sprinkle of creole seasoning.

Serve with melted butter, lemon wedges, cocktail sauce, and hot sauce.

There you have it: a low country boil you can make whenever you crave seafood. It's perfect for feeding a crowd or just yourself. Just don't forget to wear a bib and have plenty of napkins handy.

Enjoy!
