Low-Country Shrimp Boil

A relaxed one-pot spread made for newspaper-covered tables and good company.

What you’ll need

• 2 lb fresh seafood
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 lemon, plus wedges
• Fresh herbs, sea salt and cracked pepper
• 1 tsp Bay seasoning

Method

1. Pat the seafood dry and season evenly. Bring it close to room temperature.
2. Heat a wide pan or grill until properly hot. Cook in batches so every piece browns.
3. Add butter, lemon and herbs; baste briefly until fragrant and just cooked through.
4. Rest for two minutes, finish with lemon and serve immediately.
