Seafood Boil

So easy and delicious! Like I promised, I am showing you all how to make a seafood boil at home.

Seafood boil just like Louisiana New Orleans, with shrimp, crawfish, Manila clams, and a homemade Cajun seasoning and butter sauce.

Ingredients:

1 pound small red-skinned potatoes, quartered

1 pound Cajun smoked Andouille cut into 1-inch pieces

2 ears corn, shucked, cut into thirds crosswise ( 6 )

4 tbsp. minced garlic

1/4 cup Old Bay seasoning

1 medium lemon, halved, plus wedges for serving

6 cups of water

2 pounds large shrimp (16 to 20 per pound) raw.

(Sometimes I buy peeled and sometimes I don’t. It’s your preference)

Garnish parsley leaves, melted butter, and hot sauce

Instructions:

Prep all potatoes, sausage, and corn. Set to the side.

Arrange the potatoes, corn, sausage in a 6-quart slow cooker.

Sprinkle the Old Bay evenly over the ingredients in the slow cooker.

Top the Old Bay with Garlic.

Squeeze the lemon halves into the slow cooker.

Place the squeezed lemons on top in the crockpot.

Add the water to cover the top of the food.

Do not stir.

Cover and cook on the high setting, 4 to 5 hours.

Add the shrimp, stir gently, and cook covered for another 10 to 15 minutes or until shrimp are pink and cooked.

Strain and serve.

Serve with lemon wedges, melted butter, hot sauce.
