Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with Cajun seasoning and olive oil until evenly coated. Set aside to marinate for about 15 minutes.

Buffalo Sauce Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Buffalo Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the hot sauce, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and keep warm.

Cooking Shrimp

  1. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque. Remove from heat.

  2. 4

    Toss with Sauce

    Once the shrimp are cooked, pour the buffalo sauce over the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. If you prefer BBQ shrimp, mix the BBQ sauce with honey and apple cider vinegar before tossing.

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
