Notes

You can add about 6 baby red potatoes and 6 corn on the cob cut in 1/2 to the recipe.
Slice potatoes in half and boil for about 10 minutes before adding to the shrimp mixture. Add corn the last 5 minutes of boiling time to the potatoes. Add both ingredients to the shrimp mixture. I would suggest doubling the sauce recipe if you add corn and potatoes.
