Cajun Steamed Shrimp

Wow, last week was a busy one.

We were invited away for

dinner two nights in a row.

Hence- no cooking, no posting.

Tonight was kind of a date night.

I bought some shrimp at Food Lion

and wanted to steam them.

At the last minute I decided to 

use Cajun seasoning instead of Old Bay.

It was tasty and good for a change.

Cajun Steamed Shrimp

2 lb. shrimp, raw

1 cup vinegar

2 cups water

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 T. Cajun seasoning

1 T. raw sugar or brown

In a kettle mix together vinegar, water, lemon juice,

Cajun and sugar. Bring to a boil and add shrimp.

Cover and cook for 3 minutes. Remove shrimp

immediately. Don't over cook- they will get tough.

Sprinkle lightly with a little more Cajun seasoning

and toss. Serve hot with cocktail sauce.

Enjoy,

Hope
