How to Make Shrimp And Scallop Creole

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp salt, 1 tbsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, adjust to taste), 1 tsp garlic salt, 1 tsp oregano, and 1 tsp thyme.
  2. Add 1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined) and 1 lb scallops to the seasoning mixture. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  3. Melt 4 tbsp butter in a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Add 1 cup chopped celery and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  6. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and heated through.
  7. Add the seasoned shrimp and scallops to the pan. Cook until the scallops are opaque and tender (about 3-5 minutes), and the shrimp is pink and opaque.
  8. Serve the delicious shrimp and scallop creole immediately over a bed of fluffy yellow rice. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and enjoy!
