My Stovetop Adaptation

Stovetop option: Sauté the onion and peppers in a large skillet for 5 minutes, brown the sausage for 3 to 4 minutes, then add the tomatoes, seasonings, and ½ cup water and simmer 5 minutes. Add the shrimp, cover, and cook 3 to 4 minutes until pink.

To lower the sodium: Most of it comes from the smoked sausage, Old Bay, and canned tomatoes. Use no-salt-added diced tomatoes, skip the added ½ teaspoon of salt, and taste before serving.
