Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Seafood

In a large pot, fill with water and bring to a boil. Add the Dungeness crab, shrimp, and clams to the pot once the water is boiling.

2

Prepare the Vegetables

While the seafood is cooking, prepare the corn and potatoes. Add the corn halves and quartered potatoes to the pot along with the seafood.

3

Mix Seasonings

In a small bowl, mix together the Old Bay seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

Cooking

4

Cook the Seafood and Vegetables

Cook all ingredients in the pot for about 15-20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the clams have opened.

5

Add Butter and Lemon Juice

Once the seafood and vegetables are cooked, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the butter and lemon juice until the butter is melted and combined well.

Serving

6

Serve the Dish

Carefully drain the pot and transfer the seafood and vegetables to a large serving platter. Optionally, sprinkle extra seasoning mixture on top before serving.
