Cajun-Spiced Smoked Shrimp With Rémoulade image

This recipe was in the August 2011 issue of Cooking Light. I made it for my family and boyfriend, and everyone loved it. I didn't have a smoker, so I just skipped using the wood chips and grilled the shrimp, which worked fine.

1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
2 tablespoons finely chopped celery
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon capers, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon creole mustard
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
2 hard-cooked large eggs

Steps:

  • Soak wood chips in water 1 hour; drain.
  • To prepare shrimp, combine paprika and the next 9 ingredients (through red pepper). Combine olive oil and shrimp in a bowl, and toss to coat. Sprinkle shrimp with rub, and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • To prepare rémoulade, combine mayonnaise and the next 10 ingredients (through garlic) in a medium bowl. Remove yolks from eggs; discard yolks or reserve for another use. Finely chop egg whites, and stir into mayonnaise mixture. Cover; chill.
  • Remove grill rack, and set aside. Prepare the grill for indirect grilling, heating one side to high and leaving one side with no heat. Pierce the bottom of a disposable aluminum foil pan several times with the tip of a knife. Place pan on heat element on heated side of grill; add wood chips to pan. Let wood chips stand for 15 minutes or until smoking; reduce heat to medium. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill. Place shrimp in a grilling skillet; place skillet on grill rack over unheated side. Cover and grill 15 minutes or until shrimp are done, stirring after 7 minutes. Serve with rémoulade.

Not a fan of this recipe. The shrimp were dry and the remoulade was bland. I won't be making this again.

This recipe looked amazing, but it didn't turn out quite right for me. The shrimp were a bit overcooked and the remoulade was too thick. I think I'll try it again with some adjustments.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I usually use fresh shrimp, but frozen shrimp works just as well.
