  • Lastly, peel eggs, slice in half and set aside until further use.
  • Peel shrimp and keep shells but set them aside. Liberally season the shrimp with Cajun Seasoning and sauté with oil until plump and cooked through.
  • Roughly chop the cilantro and parsley. Using the same pot with the reserved pasta water, add garlic, ginger, ramen seasoning packet, coconut milk and shrimp shells. Allow broth to boil while preparing the remaining ingredients.
  • Using a small sauté pan, sear the corn and mushrooms separately until cooked through. Use a small amount (less than one teaspoon) of oil to sauté both ingredients if needed.
