(Ramen seafood boil in a bag recipe)

Ingredients:

Shrimp

Crab legs

Kielbasa Sausage

Chili Lime Noodles

Red Potatoes

Lemon

Corn

Chicken broth

Butter

Garlic

Old Bay Seasoning

Paprika

Cajun Seasoning

Lemon Pepper

Cayenne Pepper

Instructions:

In a large stockpot, bring water to a boil. Follow the package instructions to add the crab boil seasoning.

Once the water is boiling, add the halved onions, lemons, and oranges to the pot. This infuses the water with delicious, tangy flavors.

Next, throw in the red potatoes and cook them for about 10-15 minutes until they start to soften.

Then, put the snow crab legs and Dungeness crab legs. Let them cook for about 7-10 minutes or until they turn bright red. After about 5 minutes of cooking the crabs, add the sliced andouille sausage. Let it cook through for a few minutes.

Next, throw in the shrimp and hot banana peppers to the pot. Cook them for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.

Once the shrimp is cooked, turn off the heat and put in the frozen corn or fresh corn niblets to the pot.

Let everything soak in the pot for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Add boiled eggs, if using. Note: Boil the eggs separately until they are hard-boiled. You can throw them in to the seafood boil in the last few minutes of cooking to infuse them with the broth’s flavor.

Finally, use a slotted spoon or a strainer to remove the ingredients from the pot and transfer them to individual seafood boil bags or a large serving platter or bowl. Boil 1-2 packs of noodles for 3 mins. Once done add to boil bag.

Toss everything with Cajun butter sauce right before serving to bring the flavors together.

Instructions on boil sauce:

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the melted butter. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

Stir in the Cajun seasoning, Old Bay seasoning, granulated onion, granulated garlic, and coarse black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices and enhance their flavor.

Pour in the chicken stock and stir well to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes.

Pour in the lemon juice and lemon zest to the sauce, stirring to combine Put in the hot sauce and stir well.

Let the Cajun butter sauce simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as desired, adding more Cajun seasoning or hot sauce for heat, or more lemon juice for acidity. Feel free to add fresh herbs like bay leaves, parsley, chives, or scallions, if desired
