Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 12 ounce smoked sausage (cooked, sliced)
• 1 yellow onion (medium, chopped)
• 2 clove garlic (minced)
• 1.5 cup baby red potatoes (quartered)
• 1 cup chicken broth (low sodium)
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 1 pound shrimp (large, raw, peeled, deveined)
• 1.5 cup frozen corn kernels
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 lemon (cut into wedges, for serving)

Instructions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the sliced smoked sausage and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove sausage from skillet and set aside.
3. Add the chopped yellow onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until fragrant and softened, about 3 minutes.
4. Stir in the quartered baby red potatoes and 1 cup of chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until potatoes are nearly tender.
5. Stir in 1 teaspoon of Old Bay seasoning and 1/2 teaspoon of paprika. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp and the cooked smoked sausage back to the skillet.
6. Add the frozen corn kernels. Cook, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes, or until shrimp turn pink and opaque and corn is heated through.
7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
