Shrimp Boil

This is a fun summer dinner

Ingredients
Water for boiling
4 T. Old Bay Seasoning
8 oz baby potatoes, cut into halves
2 ears corn on the cob cut into 2 inch pieces
12 oz smoked sausage, cut into pieces
1 LB shrimp, shelled, deveined

Cajun Butter
6 T. unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 T. Cajun seasoning (McCormick)

Instructions

Fill a tall stockpot halfway with water.  On high heat bring the water to a rolling boil.  Add the Old Bay Seasoning, followed by baby potatoes and corn.   Cover the pot and boil for 8-10 minutes or until the potatoes become tender.

In the meantime make the Cajun Butter by combining the melted butter with Cajun seasoning.  Stir to mix well and set aside.

Add the smoked sausage and shrimp, boil for 1 minute or until the shrimp turn pink (do not over cook the shrimp).

Remove the pot from heat and drain all the ingredients using a colander.  You may need to do it in two batches if your colander is not big enough.  Toss with the butter and transfer to a sheet pan to serve
