Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Mix together all the ingredients for the Garlic Butter Seafood Boil Sauce in a small bowl, set aside.
- Place all the thawed seafood, potatoes, corn, sausage, onion quarters ,and garlic halves into your oven bag and place that into a baking dish.
- Pour all of the garlic butter sauce over the seafood and toss around gently to cover the seafood in the seasonings and butter.
- Tie the bag shut with the tie that came with the oven bag (or use butcher's twine if you lost it).
- Bake seafood for 30-40 minutes in your preheated oven. You want the potatoes to be fork tender and the shrimp pink and slightly curled in.
- Carefully open the bag and serve your seafood boil in the baking dish!
Notes
- Seafood boils stay fresh in the fridge for up to 2 days, but don't freeze it. It won't come out at its best quality.
- To reheat the next day, put the seafood into a baking dish and warm in the oven at a low temperature, around 325 degrees F, until warmed through.
- Find oven safe bags for your seafood boil at your local grocery store. But if you can't, oven bags are available on Amazon as well.
