Cajun Skillet Shrimp image

A Cajun shrimp recipe cooked in a cast iron skillet and served with crusted French bread. I have made this twice for my wife and I, and we both love it. Try a nice Chardonnay with the shrimp to top off the meal.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 loaf French bread

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Saute garlic in the hot oil until brown, about 2 minutes. Add butter, Worcestershire, lemon juice, and Cajun seasoning. Let simmer until butter has melted through, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix shrimp and butter mixture together in a cast iron skillet. Place in the refrigerator and allow to set for about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove the skillet from the refrigerator.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Place the French bread into the skillet with the shrimp and continue to cook until shrimp are bright pink and bread is slightly brown on top, about 10 minutes more. Serve in the cast iron skillet and use the bread to dip up the sauce.

I love this recipe! The shrimp are always tender and juicy, and the sauce is so flavorful. I usually serve it over rice, but it would also be great with pasta.
