How To Make A Baked Shrimp Boil Casserole

Baking a shrimp boil turns the traditional one-pot method into a simple oven casserole—no boiling required. Follow these clear steps for a flavorful result.

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.
  3. Layer the ingredients in this order: red potatoes, sliced sausage, diced onion, then drained corn.
  4. In a small bowl, melt 1/2 cup butter. Stir in 1 teaspoon garlic powder and 3 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning. Pour the seasoned butter evenly over the layered ingredients.
  5. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake 30–40 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  6. Toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon oil and 2 teaspoons Old Bay. Remove the foil, arrange the shrimp over the casserole, and bake uncovered 10–15 minutes more, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.
  7. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve hot.

FAQs & Tips

What Is A Shrimp Boil?

Seafood boils are popular across the South, with regional variations like low-country boils in the Carolinas and crawfish boils in Louisiana. A shrimp boil typically includes shrimp, potatoes, sausage, and corn cooked together with seasonings. This casserole adapts that classic combination for the oven.

Do you have to use andouille sausage?

No—use any smoked or fully cooked sausage you prefer. Andouille adds a smoky, spicy note but is optional.

How do you store leftovers?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently to avoid overcooking the shrimp.
