This classic seafood dish is loaded with juicy shrimp, tender potatoes, and flavorful corn on the cob, all boiled together in a fragrant spice mix.

Instructions

1
In a small bowl, combine the coriander seeds, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes, dill weed, allspice, salt, and bay leaves.
2
Add the spice mix to a large pot with 3 quarts of water, then add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes.
3
Add the corn and boil for 10 minutes. Add the sausage and cook for another 5 minutes.
4
Remove a potato from the pot and check to see if it's fully cooked. If not, continue to cook them until the potatoes are done.
5
Stir in the shrimp and lemon juice. Place the lid on the pot and cook for 3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
6
Drain the ingredients from the pot. Serve the shrimp boil on a newspaper-lined table, sprinkled all over with parsley, with cocktail sauce and garlic butter on the side.

Enjoy!
