These Baked Cajun Shrimp come together quickly using a Homemade Cajun Seasoning. This shrimp dish is baked not fried and full of flavour with a little heat. Great served with lemon wedges or your favourite dipping sauces.
If you’re a regular reader of the blog, you’ll probably understand my love for Cajun Seasoning. From my Grilled Cajun Chicken Salad, to the Cajun Chicken Kebabs, the creamy and delicious Cajun Shrimp Alfredo, there’s no end to how much I love using this homemade spice blend. So, adding to these Baked Cajun Shrimp was the next obvious choice.
What’s This shrimp Dish Like
- Difficulty – This recipe is really easy. Cooking time is in only 10 minutes and it’s baked in the oven for easy clean up.
- Taste – These shrimp are tender, juicy and have a hint of spice.
- Serving – As an appetizer this recipe will serve four people. However, it you are serving it as part of a main course with side dishes, I would say it’s two servings.
