SHRIMP BOIL OVEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Fill stockpot with 6 qt. water (if using 2 pots, divide ingredients and water between them). Add lemons, bay leaves, salt, peppercorns, and ½ cup seasoning, cover, and bring to a rolling boil. Add potatoes, return to a boil, and cook 7 minutes. Add sausage and onions, return to a boil, and cook 5 minutes. Add corn, return to a boil, and cook until corn is cooked and potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, about 5 minutes more.
• Add shrimp and cook (no need to return to a boil), stirring gently, until shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Remove insert or drain through a very large colander.
• Stir ketchup, horseradish, Worcestershire, lemon juice, and hot sauce, if using, in a medium bowl.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in lemon juice and hot sauce, if using. Taste and add more lemon juice, if needed. Cover and let sit in a warm place.
• Serve shrimp boil on a newspaper-lined table or large platters. Dust with additional Old Bay, if using. Serve with sauces alongside, if desired.
• Cocktail sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.

Steps:

• Microwave the bag of potatoes for 6 minutes, then cut potatoes in half or quarters, depending on the size.
• Add the corn, lemon, potatoes, sausage, butter and thyme to a large bowl. Toss together and place everything on the sheet pan with the corn standing on end and the sausage pieces sliced-side down.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Make a pouch using 2 sheets of aluminum foil, sealing the edges very well. Place the shrimp in the pouch and add the seafood seasoning. Add the beer and close the pouch. Place the pouch on the sheet pan, atop the sausage and vegetables. Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast until the potatoes are soft and the sausage is sizzling, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully open the shrimp pouch. Pour the pouch over the sheet pan and serve.
