1/3 c worchestershire sauce
2 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp cajun or creole seasoning
1 clove minced garlic
3 Tbsp water
1 juice of 1 lemon
12 Tbsp tillamook salted butter, cubed

Steps:

1. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add shrimp, Worcestershire Sauce, pepper, Cajun seasoning, garlic, water and lemon juice. Stir to combine and cook shrimp, turning once, just until pink and liquid is reduced by half. Reduce heat and stir in butter, a few cubes at a time, until butter is melted and incorporated into sauce. Serve immediately.
2. Serve over rice or with French bread for dipping. To serve 8, a different take on grilled cajun shrimp: INGREDIENTS: 1/2 cup vegetable oil 1/4 cup dry red wine 1/4 cup soy sauce 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely minced 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon dry mustard 1/2 tablespoon paprika 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper 2 pounds large shrimp Skewers or use foil to line grill PREPARATION: Put marinade ingredients in a large, glass bowl (or a zip lock bag) and whisk until well blended. Add shrimp and marinate at least 10 minutes but NO more than 30 minutes. Drain marinade into a medium size saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 3-4 minutes. Thread the shrimp on the skewers or lay them on the foil covered grill (or in the broiler). Grill about 2 minutes per side or until they are cooked through and are pink and opaque in the center. To broil, broil 4-6 inches from the heat source until cooked through. Serve with the hot marinade as a dipping sauce. This recipe from CDKitchen for Cajun Grilled Shrimp serves/makes 8

I didn't have any Cajun seasoning, so I just used regular BBQ sauce. It was still really good!

These shrimp were a little overcooked for my taste, but the sauce was really good.

I'm not a fan of BBQ sauce, but I really liked the Cajun flavor in this recipe. The shrimp were nice and juicy too.

I'm allergic to shrimp, but my husband made this recipe and said it was delicious. He even offered to make it for me with a different type of seafood.
