Ingredients To Gather Up:

Cajun Grilled Shrimp

wooden skewers

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 Tbsp garlic powder

1 Tbsp paprika

1 tsp pepper

1 tsp onion powder

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/2 Tbsp oregano

1 pound shrimp (16-20 count), peeled and deveined but with tail still on

15-20 mini peppers

Dipping Sauce

3/4 cup mayonnaise

2 Tbsp cream-style horseradish sauce

2 tsp ketchup

1 tsp dill pickle juice

½ tsp paprika

¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

¼ tsp cayenne pepper

INSTRUCTIONS:

Cajun Grilled Shrimp

Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.

In a small bowl, combine all of the spices (salt, garlic powder, paprika, pepper, onion powder, cayenne and oregano).

Rinse shrimp and pat dry with paper towels.

Toss the shrimp in the spice rub until well coated.

Thread the shrimp onto the skewers; set aside. Thread the mini peppers onto separate skewers.

Place grill pan on grill; preheat grill to medium-high.

Place the skewers with the mini peppers on the grillpan and cook for 4-5 minutes.

After several minutes, rotate the mini pepper skewers and add the skewers of shrimp.

Let shrimp grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink in color and fully cooked.

Remove shrimp and peppers from the grill and serve hot.

Dipping Sauce

Using a small bowl, combine all ingredients and whisk together until well combined.

A side note regarding the Dipping sauce: if you have time, I suggest that you make this sauce couple hours before you fix up the actual recipe. By keeping the sauce in the refrigerator for few hours will give a huge taste difference! The taste will be absolutely phenomenal.
