Boiled Seafood Recipe

There are fresh shrimp, lobster, clams, crab, potatoes, corn, and sausage in this seafood boil. An stunning, all-in-one dish, great for entertaining a large group.

Never fail to wow your guests with a dish with fresh seafood, like these bacon-wrapped scallops, garlic-buttered shrimp, or this wonderful seafood boil.
I often resort to preparing a pot of a mixed seafood boil when I’m in the mood to eat some tasty, fresh shellfish. It’s a fantastic choice since it’s easy to prepare (everything goes into one pot), tasty, and entertaining to consume. By mixing them with cheaper components like maize and potatoes, you can produce more of the more costly delicacies like lobster and crab.

In what way do you boil seafood?

You’ll need shrimp, lobster, crab, clams, taters, corn, and sausage to make this dish. Everything is cooked in a seasoned broth before being tossed with some butter. When finished, garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Instructions for boiling Fish and Shellfish

Whenever possible, use the largest shrimp you can locate in this recipe. For this recipe, I use jumbo shrimp in quantities of 16-20.
While I used tails from Maine lobsters and legs from Dungeness crabs, you could easily substitute your own crustacean.
You may use white, yellow, or bi-color corn, but fresh corn on the cob is the finest option for this dish.
For this recipe, I like to use little Yukon gold potatoes, although red potatoes work just as well.
Either kielbasa or Andouille sausage would be suitable. Andouille sausage, which may have a noticeable amount of heat, is the one I suggest if you share this taste.
The shellfish called for in the recipe is only a suggestion; feel free to substitute your favourite seafood, whether it be mussels, scallops, or even pieces of tough fish like swordfish.
It’s important to remove any unopened clams from the boil before serving.
Seafood is very perishable and is at its finest when served shortly after being prepared.
Cook using either raw or cooked shrimp, with or without the shell. Personally, I find it more convenient to consume shrimp that has been peeled.

When boiling fish, how long should it be?

There is a wide range of cooking times for the seafood in this dish; thus, you should start by boiling the things that take the longest to cook and then add the rest.

Cooking time for a lobster: 8-12 minutes
5-10 minutes for clams
Pre-cooked crab may be eaten in 6-8 minutes
Raw crab takes 20 minutes.
