Coconut-Cajun Shrimp
Servings: 2 to 4
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- approximately 12 large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
- 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
- salt, if needed
- cayenne pepper
- Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil
- rice (for serving)
- salad (for serving)
Directions:
Lay shrimp in a single layer on a plate. Generously sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the seasoning over the shrimp. Flip over to other side and season with the rest of the seasoning. Lightly sprinkle with salt if you used a salt-free seasoning. Add cayenne pepper if you want spicier shrimp.
Heat 1/4 inch coconut oil in frying pan. Fry shrimp in medium to high heat until you start to see the edges turn white, approximately 2 minutes.
Flip and cook other side, approximately 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Do not overcook.
