Equipment

Method
 

  1. Brown sausage: In a large skillet or Dutch oven, brown sliced smoked sausage over medium heat. Remove and set aside.
  2. Cook vegetables: Add onions and peppers to the sausage drippings. Sauté 3–4 minutes. Add cabbage and 2 tablespoons butter. Cook 8–12 minutes until tender.
  3. Season: Stir in garlic, JO Seasoning, Zatarain's Pro Boil, and black pepper. Add a splash of water if needed.
  4. Add sausage and corn: Return sausage to the skillet. Stir in corn and cook 2–3 minutes.
  5. Add seafood: Stir in shrimp and scallops. Cook until seafood reaches 145°F. Add imitation crab during the last 2 minutes to heat through.
  6. Add eggs: Nestle halved hard-boiled eggs into the skillet. Spoon seasoned butter over the eggs and warm gently.
  7. Finish: Add remaining butter and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve hot.

Notes

- For fewer carbs, omit the corn and replace imitation crab with real crab.
- Start with a small amount of Zatarain's Pro Boil. It's concentrated!
- Don't overcook the seafood.
- A large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven works best.
