SPICY BAKED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine first 7 ingredients in 9x13-inch baking dish. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake until shrimp are cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve shrimp with French bread.

TWICE-BAKED CAJUN SHRIMP STUFFED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F.
• Wash and dry the potatoes and prick with a fork several times to allow steam to escape while cooking. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake until tender, about 1 hour.
• While the potatoes are cooking, cook the shrimp mixture. Melt butter over medium heat in a skillet. Add in onions, celery and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add in half of the green onions, Cajun seasoning, hot sauce and stir to combine. Add in chopped shrimp and cook until opaque. Set aside.
• Once the potatoes are done, let them cool enough to handle. Slice off the top 1/3 of each potato and gently scoop the flesh and place into a bowl, leaving about a 1/4" border of potato still attached to the skin. Scoop out the flesh from the potato tops and add to the bowl; discard the skin from the tops.
• Mash the scooped out potatoes with 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, the remaining green onions (reserve a little for garnish if you like), and sour cream. You could stop here, but I like to use a hand mixer for just a minute to get the potatoes extraly smooth and delicious.
• Gently fold in the cheese, then the shrimp mixture. Taste, and adjust salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning as needed. Pile the shrimp mixture as high as you can back into the potato shells, being careful not to break them. Sprinkle with any remaining cheese. Place the potatoes back in the oven on a baking sheet and bake until heated through, about 20-25 minutes. Garnish with green onions.

SHRIMP & CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• Thoroughly mix shrimp, crab, egg white, mustard, hot pepper, salt and Peppercorn Blend in a bowl. Shape into 8 patties, each about 3/8 inch thick. Spread breadcrumbs in a shallow dish and coat the patties on both sides with crumbs.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over low heat; add crab cakes and cook until golden on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.

OVEN-ROASTED CAJUN SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium to medium-low and simmer until barely tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in corn during the last 5 minutes. Drain well.
• Arrange shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and corn in a single layer in a large 4-inch-deep roasting pan. Cut butter into slices and place on top.
• Combine Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, hot sauce, and cayenne in a small bowl. Pour sauce over the shrimp mixture. Top with lemon slices.
• Roast in the preheated oven until shrimp turns pink, basting and turning often, about 10 minutes.
