Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: French
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 pound andouille sausage, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Peel and devein the shrimp if not already done. Slice the andouille sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Chop the parsley and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shrimp and sliced andouille sausage. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss everything together until the shrimp and sausage are evenly coated with oil and seasoning.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, place it on the stove over medium-high heat and allow it to warm up.
- Once the grill is hot, add the shrimp and sausage mixture. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, and the sausage is nicely browned. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, as they can become tough.
- While the shrimp and sausage are grilling, prepare the hot ravigote sauce. In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, capers, Dijon mustard, and red wine vinegar. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Once the shrimp and sausage are cooked, remove them from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Drizzle the hot ravigote sauce over the grilled shrimp and sausage, ensuring that each piece is well-coated.
- Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Enjoy your Grilled Shrimp and Andouille Sausage with Hot Ravigote Sauce!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, prepare your shrimp and sausage ahead of time. You can even marinate the shrimp in olive oil and seasonings for added flavor.
- Watch the Grill: Keep a close eye on the shrimp while grilling. They cook quickly and can become rubbery if overcooked. Aim for that perfect pink color!
- Customize Your Sauce: Feel free to experiment with the hot ravigote sauce. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra heat or a squeeze of lemon juice for a citrusy twist.
- Serve with Sides: Pair this dish with a light salad or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce, making it a complete meal.
- Garnish for Presentation: Don’t skip the extra parsley garnish! It adds a fresh pop of color and enhances the dish's visual appeal.
