CAJUN SHRIMP – EASY RECIPE
Cajun shrimp are delicious and so easy to make in a few minutes on top of the stove.
I love making these Cajun shrimp for appetizers and serving with my recipe for cocktail sauce or make them anytime you want an easy snack while watching your favorite programs on t.v. or when you have friends over. This recipe is good for any event or gathering and I promise you won’t have any left. You can double or triple the recipe if serving a group of people. You could serve these shrimp over rice or pasta for main dish for two people.
