Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Seafood

Season the shrimp and salmon with Cajun seasoning on both sides.

2

Sear the Salmon

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through and blackened. Remove from skillet and set aside.

3

Cook the Shrimp

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink. Remove and set aside with the salmon.

4

Make the Cajun Gravy

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Then, add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.

5

Finish the Gravy

Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6

Combine and Serve

Return the shrimp and salmon to the skillet, coating them in the gravy. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
