How to Make Cajun Shrimp
Begin by heating a large heavy bottom skillet over medium heat. I prefer to use my cast iron skillet.
Melt butter in the skillet and add the garlic, shrimp and spices. Stir well to make sure the spices are evenly distributed and the shrimp is covered.
After 3-4 minutes, the shrimp will begin to turn pink (however, this will depend on how big your shrimp are). Add the additional butter and heavy cream.
Cover and reduce the heat to low. Allow the butter to melt completely and a creamy Cajun sauce will develop.
Stir the shrimp very well so it’s completely coated and serve immediately. If you wish, you can garnish with fresh lemons, parmesan cheese, or hot sauce.
