Ingredients:

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (ideal for seafood recipes)

1 lb steak (such as ribeye or sirloin), cut into cubes (great for grilling steak enthusiasts)

2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning (the secret to Cajun cooking)

2 tablespoons olive oil (healthy cooking oil for grilling)

1 teaspoon garlic powder (enhances flavor in steak recipes)

1 teaspoon paprika (perfect for adding spice to steak and seafood dishes)

1/2 teaspoon salt (key to balancing flavors in grilled shrimp and steak)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper (adds perfect seasoning)

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (for a spicy kick in your Cajun grill recipes)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish – a touch of freshness to your grilled shrimp dish)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

2. Toss the shrimp and steak cubes in the spice mixture until evenly coated.

3. Drizzle olive oil over the seasoned shrimp and steak, ensuring they are well coated. (Olive oil for grilling enhances both flavor and health benefits.)

 

Cooking Process

1. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. (Perfect for summer grilling or outdoor cooking enthusiasts.)

2. Skewer the shrimp and steak alternately on metal skewers for easy grilling.

3. Grill the skewers for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp is pink and the steak reaches your desired level of doneness.

4. Once cooked, remove the skewers from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes.

 

Serving & Storage

Serving Suggestions: For a complete Cajun feast, serve the Cajun Shrimp and Steak with a side of steamed rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh garden salad. You can also whip up a zesty garlic butter sauce to drizzle over the skewers for an extra burst of flavor. Don’t forget to sprinkle the dish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Storage Tips: Store leftover shrimp and steak in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the shrimp and steak in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. (Meal prep ideas for busy weeks.)
