Directions: |
Directions: Cook the bacon in a large pan and set aside.
Adding the sausage and cook until lightly golden brown and slightly crispy and setting aside.
Add the shrimp and cook until pink, about 1-2 minutes per side before setting aside.
Add the onion, pepper and celery and cook until tender, about 7-10 minutes, before adding the corn and cooking for 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the garlic, thyme and flour and cook until the flour starts to brown a bit, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the broth and deglaze the pan by scraping the brown bits up off of the bottom of the pan with a spoon as the broth simmers.
Add the cream, sausage, cajun seasoning, bay seasoning, mustard and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce thickens to a gravy, about 3-5 minutes.
Mix in the bacon, shrimp, green onions and parsley and serve on top of the freshly baked biscuits.
Option: Simmer the shrimp shells in the chicken broth for 10 minutes before straining the solids out to add more shrimp flavor!
Cheddar Buttermilk Biscuits
Process the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and bitter in a food processor until it forms sand like grains.
Gently mix in the buttermilk and cheddar until it forms a dough.
Form the dough into the desired shape, place on a baking sheet, and brush with the egg mixture before baking in a preheated 425F/220C oven until lightly golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. |
