2 tablespoon butter
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon Creole seasoning, divided
1 1/3 cups chopped yellow onion
2/3 cup chopped red bell pepper
2/3 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 chicken stock
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
12 ounces andouille sausage, grilled and cut crosswise 1/4-inch thick
8 ounces penne pasta, cooked according to the package directions
3 ears yellow corn, grilled, kernels cut from cob
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
In a large Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning. Cook, stirring frequently, until shrimp are pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pot.
In the same pot, cook onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic over medium-high heat until vegetables are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add stock, parsley, thyme, oregano, salt, and remaining 1 tablespoon Creole seasoning; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
Stir shrimp, andouille, pasta, corn, and lemon juice into vegetable mixture, tossing to coat. Serve immediately.
