Prawn Boil Ingredients

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Boil

    In a large pot, bring the water to a rolling boil. Add Old Bay seasoning, salt, and garlic cloves.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Once boiling, add the red potatoes and corn on the cob. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

  3. 3

    Add Shrimp

    Add the jumbo shrimp to the pot and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the pot from heat and drain the water. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the shrimp and vegetables. Toss with melted butter and chopped parsley before serving.
