Easy Spicy Baked Cajun Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
• In a small bowl, combine the Cajun spice mix ingredients and stir to combine.
• In a baking dish, combine potatoes, corn, 2 garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of oil, and ½ tablespoon of the cajun spice mix.
• Mix until the vegetables are coated evenly with the spice mix. Place butter on top.
• Bake for 25 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, combine the sausage, shrimp, garlic, oil, and ½ tablespoon of the spice mix. Save the remaining spice mix for future recipes.
• Mix well.
• Add the sausage and shrimp into the same baking dish as the corn and potatoes.
• Bake for another 15 minutes.
• Top with fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges and beer!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the seasonings. In another bowl, combine oil and 1-1/2 teaspoons of seasoning mixture (save remaining mixture for another use). Add shrimp; toss until well coated. Thread shrimp onto two metal or soaked wooded skewers. Broil shrimp 4-6 in. from the heat for 2 minutes. Turn shrimp; baste with remaining oil mixture. Broil 1-2 minutes longer or until shrimp turn pink.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, Cajun seasoning, lemon juice, parsley, honey, soy sauce, and cayenne pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add shrimp and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Transfer shrimp into the prepared baking dish and pour any remaining marinade over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees (for french bread and to keep shrimp warm later).
• Place 1/2 a stick of butter in a saute pan and melt it on medium heat.
• Place garlic into pan and cook for 2-3 minutes stirring often, if you sliced it thin enough it might liquify, this is what you want, but not necessary.
• Add pepper, creole seasoning, cayenne pepper, paprika, bay leaves, worcestershire sauce, water and chives to the saute pan (if the mixture doesn't cover the bottom of the pan, add a little extra water and worcestershire sauce to account for the difference) Let this simmer for about 2-3 minutes while stirring, if the mixture begins to boil turn the heat down slightly.
• Add the shrimp to the pan and cook 3-4 minutes total on each side, but flip them constantly.
• Once the shrimp are cooked completely, remove them from the pan into a bowl or onto a plate (leave the liquid/mixture in the pan), cover with aluminum foil and place in oven to keep warm, be sure you use an oven friendly bowl.
• Put your french bread in the oven right now to get it warm and crispy for the meal.
• Cut your remaining 1/2 stick of butter into 6 pieces and place one into the pan at a time stirring constantly until they melt completely, then add the next, once they are all added, stir for about 3 more minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken (This is important, be sure it grows thicker before moving on, otherwise it will tend to seperate).
• Cut the lemon into 4 pieces and squeeze the juice into the mixture while stirring slowly, stir for another minute or two while the mixture settles.
• Slowly add the heavy whipping cream to the mixture while stirring, make sure the heat is low enough so it won't boil.
• Once you are finished stirring the cream in turn the heat down to between medium and low just to keep it warm and stir constantly.
• Remove shrimp and bread from oven.
• Slice the bread into pieces, place the shrimp into bowls and pour the sauce over it, use the bread for dipping in the sauce.

Steps:

• Combine first 7 ingredients in 9x13-inch baking dish. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake until shrimp are cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve shrimp with French bread.
