Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
1/4 cup Creole or spicy mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon minced dill pickle
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 large clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced chives
1/2 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 1/2 teaspoons Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 medium green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 medium red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
6 ounces andouille sausage, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 clove garlic, minced
6 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup shredded white Cheddar
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Creole sauce: Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, Cajun seasoning, paprika, pickle, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic and chives in a small bowl until combined. Cover and refrigerate until the skillet is done.
  • For the skillet: Preheat the broiler. Toss the shrimp with the House Seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and green and red peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp, andouille and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the shrimp are opaque and the sausage is heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the eggs and milk and slowly scramble the mixture with a silicone spatula, scraping up large curds from the bottom of the pan. As soon as the eggs are almost set, but still a tiny bit runny (about 2 minutes), remove from the heat and sprinkle with the Cheddar.
  • Broil until the cheese melts, 10 to 15 seconds. Remove the skillet from the oven, drizzle with some Creole sauce, and sprinkle with the green onions.
  • Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of sausage. It was a great substitute and the skillet was still very flavorful.

This recipe is a great base for a customizable breakfast skillet. I added some black beans and corn to mine and it was delicious.

I had some trouble finding andouille sausage, so I used regular breakfast sausage instead. It turned out fine.

This skillet was a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less cayenne pepper.

I'm not a big fan of Creole food, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors were well-balanced and the dish was very filling.

This skillet is a great way to use up leftover rice. I added some chopped bell peppers and onions to mine and it was even better.

I made this for breakfast this morning and it was delicious! The cheese was melted and gooey, and the sausage and potatoes were cooked to perfection.
