Quick Crawfish Boil

Fresh corn is not strictly a “no” paleo item. However, if you don’t allow this in your diet, just skip it, as the recipe will still stand up without it.

• Hands-On Time: 5 minutes

• Cook Time: 5 minutes

Serves 4


1 large sweet onion, peeled, halved, and sliced in half-moons

2 ears corn, husked and halved

12-ounces precooked andouille sausage, cut into 1" pieces

2 pounds crawfish

2 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning

1 (12-ounce) gluten-free beer

1/2 cup water

1 Layer onions evenly in the bottom of the Instant Pot®. Add corn and sausage in even layers. Add the crawfish and sprinkle with Old Bay Seasoning. Pour in beer and water. Lock lid. Press the Manual button and adjust time to 5 minutes. When timer beeps, quick-release pressure until float valve drops and then unlock lid.

2 Use a slotted spoon to transfer ingredients to a serving platter. Serve warm.

PACK A PICNIC

This Crawfish Boil is a great summer food. Line a picnic table with newspapers and pour all the ingredients onto the paper in the middle of the table. Guests can enjoy this family-style with no real etiquette to the meal other than to have fun. Oh, and don’t forget a roll or two of paper towels. This can get messy.
