Yield:

Yield: 12 (8-inch) skewers (4 servings)

Plump Gulf shrimp are a classic on the grill, and these are full of Louisiana’s Cajun and Creole flavors. Serve them with chilled coleslaw for an easy family meal.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ½ cup mayonnaise, the red wine vinegar, honey, mustard and celery salt and mix well. Add the coleslaw mix and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the shrimp.
  2. In another large bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup mayonnaise and the blackening seasoning and lemon juice and mix well. Remove ¼ cup of the mayonnaise mixture and set aside. Add the shrimp to the remaining mayonnaise mixture in the bowl and toss to coat.
  3. Preheat a grill or a grill pan to medium high. Skewer 5 or 6 shrimp on wooden or metal skewers. Cook the shrimp for 2 minutes on each side or until they turn opaque and grill marks are visible.
  4. Serve with coleslaw and the reserved mayonnaise mixture for dipping.
