Cajun Acadian Peppered Shrimp

Cajun Acadian Peppered Shrimp Recipe. Shrimp with the shells on, seasoned to perfection, in a wonderful sauce.

Recipe ingredients:

  • 1 pounds Butter
  • ½ cup Lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoon Fresh basil; chopped
  • 2 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoon Fresh oregano; chopped
  • 5 Garlic cloves; minced
  • 1 Bay leaf; crumbled
  • ½ cup Black pepper; finely ground
  • Salt
  • 4 pounds Large raw shrimp in shells

Directions:

  1. The shrimp should be of a size to number 30-35 per pound.
  2. Melt the butter in a large deep-sided frying pan or an iron skillet over low heat. When melted, raise the heat, and add the remaining ingredients except the shrimp.
  3. Cook, stirring often, until browned to a rich mahogany color, about 10 minutes. Add the shrimp, stirring and turning to coat well with the seasoned butter.
  4. Cook until the shrimp have turned a rich deep pink, about 10 minutes. Serve the shrimp in their shells, peeling them at the table
