Summer time is the best time of year for seafood! The recipe below reminds me of a low country boil but is so simple and so delicious!!! I ended up using a spicy sausage but feel free to try others as well. I also threw in some Old Bay Seasoning. It’s served best with some good bread too. I hope you enjoy!
Ingredients:
12 ounces uncooked penne
1 (14-ounce) package low-fat smoked sausage
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups frozen corn kernels
2 pounds peeled and deveined shrimp
1 bunch green onions, sliced
Directions:
Cook pasta in boiling salted water according to package directions; drain. Transfer to a large serving bowl, set aside, and keep warm.
Cook sausage in a large nonstick skillet 5 minutes or until browned. Stir in broth and corn. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes or until corn is crisp-tender.
Stir in shrimp; cover and cook 2 to 4 minutes or until shrimp are done. Remove from heat and stir in green onions. Toss shrimp mixture and pasta to combine.
