Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the seafood

    If using frozen crawfish, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight. Rinse the shrimp under cold water, leaving the heads intact.

  2. 2

    Chop the vegetables

    Chop the onion, bell pepper, and celery into small pieces for even cooking.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and celery, and sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  2. 4

    Add garlic and seasonings

    Stir in the minced garlic, Old Bay seasoning, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

  3. 5

    Cook the seafood

    Add the shrimp and crawfish to the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice. Stir to combine and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and serve

    Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish.
