Cajun Shrimp Filling

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with Cajun seasoning, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the shrimp mixture. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Lettuce Wraps

    While the shrimp is cooking, wash and separate the lettuce leaves. Bibb or butter lettuce works best for wraps.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Wraps

    Spoon the cooked Cajun shrimp mixture into each lettuce leaf. You can add additional toppings such as diced tomatoes, avocado, or a drizzle of hot sauce if desired.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a fresh and flavorful appetizer or meal.
