This Cajun Sausage and Shrimp Skillet meal is bursting with so much flavor! This easy meal comes together in 20 minutes using only 1 skillet!
Can we talk about how much I love Skillet Meals?!
I just love it when you can make everything in one skillet. One skillet = dinner simplified
If you’ve been following the blog lately you may have noticed I’ve been on a Cajun kick.
I can’t help it, ever since I moved to the south three years ago I’ve been hooked on Cajun food!
For this yummy skillet meal I used:
- Shrimp
- Andouille Sausage
- Zucchini
- Red Bell Pepper
- and Shallots
Add everything to a large bowl along with Olive Oil, and Old Bay Seasoning. Mix well making sure everything is coated evenly.
Heat your cast iron skillet over med-high heat on the stovetop. Make sure skillet is nice and hot before adding the ingredients.
Add ingredients to the hot skillet and sauté 10-15 minutes until Shrimp is cooked all the way through and veggies have softened a bit.
Garnish with a bit of fresh Parsley and serve!
Love easy meals like this!

My favorite recipe to make in an iron skillet is a chicken thigh recipe I found online. I was never a fan of thighs until I tried this. You start on the stove then it goes into the oven and the skin is so crispy.

We bought ours specifically to make tortillas because we read that they do a better job because of the heat distribution. I would have to stick with tortillas as my favorite.
