Shrimp with Smoked Andouille Sausage

• When selecting the shrimp, make sure they are fresh and not frozen.
• Look for andouille sausage with the least amount of preservatives and additives.

• Substitute the olive oil with coconut oil. The benefit of this substitution is that coconut oil is a healthier alternative to olive oil and it adds a subtle flavor to the dish.
• Substitute the Worcestershire sauce with tamari. The benefit of this substitution is that tamari adds a deeper umami flavor to the dish and it is gluten-free.

Cajun-Style Shrimp and Sausage Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning, 1/3 pound of large shrimp, peeled and deveined (10 large shrimp), and 6 ounces of andouille sausage, or smoked sausage, sliced thinly. Saute until shrimp just turn pink, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp and sausage to a plate. Add 6 ounces of large mushrooms, quartered (8 large mushrooms) to the same skillet and saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of whipping cream, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Return shrimp and sausage to the skillet and simmer until shrimp are cooked through, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper
