Easy Shrimp Boil Recipe

0 Add the potatoes, onion, garlic, bay leaves and Cajun seasoning to a large 8-10 quart stockpot.
1 Fill the pot halfway up with 4-5 quarts of water, then cover and place over medium-high heat. Let cook for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are soft.
2 Squeeze two lemons into the pot then add the lemon halves, sausage, and corn to the pot and cook for 5 minutes.
3 Add the shrimp and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the shrimp turns pink and curls in on itself, then remove the pot from heat.
4 Remove the shrimp and vegetables from the pot and transfer them to a large serving platter or sheet pan. Serve with additional lemon wedges and a sprinkle of finely diced chives.
