- Prep the Ingredients:
- Take a few minutes to wash and slice all your vegetables measuring out the spices and getting the shrimp and sausage ready before you start cooking will help everything come together smoothly
- Cook the Shrimp:
- Set a large pan over medium high heat and drizzle a little oil across the bottom once hot arrange the shrimp in a single layer and cook each side about two minutes until they curl and turn pink remove them from the pan so they stay juicy
- Brown the Sausage:
- Add the sausage to the same pan and let each piece brown nicely on both sides the caramelization here adds tons of flavor set the sausage aside once browned
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- If the pan looks dry add a touch more oil now add in the onions bell pepper and cabbage sauté for four to five minutes stirring every so often so nothing burns you want the veggies just beginning to soften but not mushy
- Add the Broccoli and Carrots:
- Toss in the broccoli florets and cook three minutes until bright green then sprinkle in the carrots and keep cooking for another minute both should stay crisp tender
- Make the Butter Sauce:
- While the veggies finish grab a small saucepan and melt the butter over medium heat whisk in the paprika brown sugar Cajun seasoning salt cayenne hot sauce Worcestershire onion powder garlic powder red pepper flakes and parsley stir and let everything get fragrant and well blended for about one minute squeeze in the lemon juice and remove the sauce from heat
- Combine Everything:
- Return the shrimp and sausage to the vegetable pan pour the fragrant butter sauce all over toss gently until everything is glossy and coated let it heat through for a minute or two then serve immediately
