So, we've started a fun new tradition - family dinners with friends. Cooking and eating a delicious meal with good friends is the perfect way to spend an evening. The first one we had was black bean burgers which was a huge success, but, it was unfortunately undocumented. This week we tried a low country boil which was delicious and foolproof.
Basically, you dump everything into a huge pot.....
let it boil......
then eat. Everyone will be full and happy!
Here's the recipe....
Ingredients-
~ 12ish new potatoes, or larger potatoes, cut into quarters or halves
~ 1-2 packs of anouille sausages, cut into pieces
~ 6-8 ears of corn, cut in half
~ 3 pounds of shrimp, unpeeled
~ 2 onions, quartered
~ crab/shrimp boil seasoning in a bag
~ 2-3 tbsp old bay seasoning
~ a few bay leaves
~ salt and pepper to taste
Fill a large pot with water. When it comes to a boil, add all of your seasonings, corn, potatoes and sausage. Cook for 20 -30 minutes, depending on how big your potatoes are. Add the shrimp and cook for 3-5 minutes, you don't want to over cook them or they will become rubbery and disgusting. Serve with crusty bread and enjoy!
