Cajun Shrimp Skewer Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp and Vegetables

    In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, Cajun seasoning, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the shrimp evenly. Add the bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini, and toss until the vegetables are coated.

  2. 2

    Skewer the Ingredients

    Thread the marinated shrimp and vegetables onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating between shrimp and vegetables for a colorful presentation.

  3. 3

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve warm with additional lemon wedges on the side.
