Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 medium shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails removed
  • 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning blend
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 450 grams smoked sausage, sliced into 1.25 cm pieces
  • 80 grams sliced onions
  • 80 grams sliced bell peppers
  • 100 grams thinly sliced cabbage
  • 60 grams julienned carrots
  • 100 grams broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil, divided
  • 70 grams unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 0.5 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 dash hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.5 teaspoon fine salt
  • Juice of 0.5 lemon

Instructions

  1. Toss peeled and deveined shrimp with seafood seasoning and 1 tablespoon olive oil until evenly coated.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Place shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes per side until just opaque. Remove shrimp from pan and set aside.
  3. Add sliced smoked sausage to the same pan and sauté for 4–5 minutes until browned on both sides. Transfer sausage to a plate and reserve.
  4. Add additional oil to the pan if needed. Add onions, bell peppers, and cabbage. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4–5 minutes until softened.
  5. Incorporate broccoli florets and sauté for 3 minutes. Stir in carrots and cook an additional 1 minute until vegetables are vibrant and tender-crisp.
  6. In a separate saucepan over medium heat, melt unsalted butter. Whisk in paprika, brown sugar, Cajun seasoning, salt, cayenne pepper, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and parsley. Squeeze in lemon juice and stir until combined.
  7. Pour warm spiced butter sauce over sautéed vegetables. Add cooked shrimp and browned sausage back to the pan. Toss thoroughly to coat and heat through. Serve immediately.

Notes

Adjust heat level by increasing or decreasing cayenne and red pepper flakes to taste.
