Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.

  2. 2

    Add Sausage and Garlic

    Slice the andouille sausage and add it to the pot. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Combine Rice and Beans

    Add the rice, South Carolina beans, diced tomato, Cajun seasoning, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Stir to combine all ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Broth

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Shrimp

    After 20 minutes, add the wild Gulf shrimp to the pot, stir gently, and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

    Remove the bay leaves, garnish with sliced green onions, and serve hot.
