Cajun Shrimp Filling
Method
Preparation and Assembly
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.
Prepare the Lettuce Wraps
While the shrimp is cooking, wash and separate the lettuce leaves. Bibb or butter lettuce works best for wraps.
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.
Serve
Serve immediately as a fresh and flavorful appetizer or meal.
