How Do You Make Cajun Boiled Shrimp?
Cajun boiled shrimp provides you with a hot and spicy flavor from the South that you can make anywhere and any time. Add in a smooth shrimp cocktail sauce and you can tone down the shrimp for those who don’t like hot food. To make your Cajun boiled shrimp meal even more fun, invite many of your friends and family over for a big celebratory meal. Fill the pot 2/3 of the way full with water and place it on the stove. Turn the heat on the stove up to the highest level. Rinse and cut the lemons in half. Add the Cayenne pepper, lagniappe, garlic, butter, bay leaves, salt and the proper amount of Zatarain’s liquid as listed on the label. Squeeze the lemon juice into the pot from the lemons and then drop the lemons into the pot. Bring the water to a boil. Pack ice into the zipper sandwich bags and place the ice back into the freezer while you wait for the water to boil. Add the shrimp to the boiling pot and set a timer for 3 minutes. Get the ice packages out of the freezer. Turn off the heat
