Spicy Grilled Shrimp w/ Cajun Butter and Lemon Remoulade + More Cajun Fun on the Bayou


By Cajun Delights (Visit website)




With the gorgeous Spring weather we've been having, I have been grilling up some fabulous, spicy shrimp. This is one of my favorite ways to prepare  seafood and it is out of this world!  Once I start eating these, it's very hard to stop! And the scrumptious Lemon Remoulade Sauce is perfect for dipping. So easy and delicious! Serve with a big tossed salad and garlic bread and a nice glass of white wine. Cest bon, cher!  Bon appetit!


Spicy Grilled Shrimp w/ Cajun Butter and Lemon Remoulade

First make the Cajun Butter.

Cajun Butter
1 stick butter, melted
1/2  tsp. cayenne pepper
Salt to taste
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes, (optional)
1 tbs. chopped fresh  parsley
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Combine all in small bowl and set aside.

Spicy Grilled Shrimp
1 lb. (16- 20 count) large shrimp, peeled and deviened, w/ tails left on
1 tbs. Cajun seasoning
1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
Tabasco to taste

Season shrimp with Cajun seasoning, Old Bay, and Tabasco, baste with Cajun butter, and set aside for 10 minutes. Arrange shrimp in grill pan in a single layer. Grill on medium heat about 5 minutes on each side. Baste shrimp often. Fabulous, hot and spicy! Serves 4  Serve with this divine lemon remoulade sauce! Enjoy!

Lemon Remoulade Sauce

1/8 cup Creole mustard
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 tbs. white wine vinegar
1 tbs. fresh parsley, chopped

Whisk all ingredients together until well blended, and chill for 30 minutes before serving.

More Cajun Fun on the Bayou!

Bach Lunch

We had an absolute blast at the first Bach Lunch of the season, on Friday, at Parc Sans Souci, in downtown Lafayette. It's a Lafayette tradition to go to this wonderful outdoor concert and lunch, at noon on Fridays, to kick off the weekend a little early. William A. Thompson and his New Orleans Jazz Band entertained the crowd.



Downtown Alive

Then later that evening, we went to the T.G.I.F block party at Downtown Alive, at Parc International. This is another weekly, Lafayette tradition where people go to hear and dance to great live music and visit with friends and family.  It was a beautiful evening and The Eric Lindell Blues Band was rockin' the crowd.





And for your enjoyment,  here's a little clip that I took of a Cajun two-step. Oh the life of a Cajun, is oh so fun! Let the good times roll, cher!


Wishing you all a wonderful Springtime week! Merci beaucoup for coming by!

HAPPY SPRING,  YA'LL!
