Ingredients
For the Creamy Cajun Sauce:
- 1 cup mayonnaise Best Foods or Hellmann's
- ⅔ cup ketchup
- 3 Tablespoons horseradish sauce
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ to 1 Tablespoon creole seasoning depending on how spicy you like it
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
For the shrimp:
- 4 Tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound Shrimp medium to large, uncooked, peeled and deveined
- creole seasoning to taste
- 4 French-style hoagie rolls or French bread (Bratwurst buns or work great too)
- Shredded cabbage or lettuce
Instructions
- Combine sauce ingredients in a mixing bowl until smooth. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet to medium heat, add butter and garlic. When the butter is hot and melted, add shrimp. Sprinkle Creole seasoning over the shrimp. It can be a little spicy so only sprinkle it to your personal taste. When the shrimp is pink all the way through, remove it from heat. Do not overcook.
- Split the rolls open and divide the shrimp evenly between each roll. Top with the creamy Cajun sauce and shredded cabbage, to taste.
Notes
- If you like breaded and deep-fried shrimp, you can bread it in cornmeal and a flour mixture and cook in batches on medium-high heat, frying in hot vegetable oil until the shrimp is golden brown and dry on paper towels.
- You could also be seasoning your shrimp with a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, a little dash of hot sauce, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, Cajun seasoning, onion powder, or spicy brown mustard.
- Replace shrimp with fried catfish (or any other kind of white fish), oysters, soft-shell crab, lobster, or other types of seafood if desired.
