What You Need:
- Avocado Oil – or oil of choice
- Shrimp
- Sausage – I like this recipe with both smoked sausage and andouille
- Bell Peppers – variety of colors
- Onion
- Garlic
- Zucchini
- Jalapeño – optional
- Spices – salt, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, oregano and pepper flakes
- Parsley – optional topping
Let’s Cook:
- In a small bowl, mix the seasonings together
- Pat your shrimp dry and season with half the seasoning mixture on both sides
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the shrimp on the first side for 2 minutes. Then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes (or until just cooked through) remove from pan and set aside
- Add a little more oil to the pan if needed and cook the sliced sausage in the skillet until browned evenly – remove from pan and set aside
- Add in the peppers and onions, sauté until onions just start to get translucent and peppers are slightly softened. Then stir in the garlic, jalapeño, zucchini and remaining seasoning mixture; cook for an additional 5-7 minutes
- Then the shrimp and sausage get added back in, leave over heat for 1 minute just to warm them back up. Remove from heat and top with parsley if desired

YAY!
I made this for supper the other night and it was delicious (I served it with cauliflower rice). Today for brunch I heated up some of the leftovers, added a little spinach and topped with a couple fried eggs…yum!!! Such good flavor!! Thank you for this recipe.
I am so happy to hear this, thank you so much for sharing!
Fantastic recipe, I made some cauliflower yellow rice (with peas and carrots) and this recipe was doubled and made great meal prep. I am so happy to have found this site. Thanks so much
So glad you enjoyed it Reginald!
This dish was AMAZING! Even my pucky eater ate it and gave me the thumbs up!
This is a HUGE win! I love when a picky eater enjoys a recipe, thank you so much for sharing 🙂

This looks delicious! What kind of sausage did you use?
Thank you and I used kielbasa! My favorite Whole30 compliant option is from Pederson’s Farms
I made it a little less keto (and a lot more lazy lol) with a frozen stir-fry vegetable mix. I used the same seasonings/meat. THIS IS DELICIOUS! And toddler approved!
I am so glad you and your family enjoyed it!
Just finished eating this tonight. Big flavor! Found grass fed beef smoked sausage (paleo friendly) soo good! Thanks for another great recipe!
I am so glad you enjoyed it 🙂
So delicious!!
So tasty and versatile. Added mushrooms and some chipotle powder. Yum.
Amazing! I love the spices and the full flavors but I did substitute chicken for the sausage to get a little leaner protein.
