Cajun Shrimp
This Cajun shrimp recipe is as quick and easy as it gets. It's spicy and buttery, with a kick of lemon and fresh parsley to round out the flavors. The shrimp get a nice char on one side, then finish cooking in butter so the texture remains tender.

  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until opaque around the edges and almost cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; turn the shrimp over and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Cook until the shrimp are fully cooked and completely opaque, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat and stir in parsley and lemon juice.
