½ cup 

 

cajun seasoning

 

1 cup 

 

olive oil

 

1 large 

 

lemon, sliced

 

2 Tbs

butter, melted

 

3 Tbs 

 

canned chipotle chile paste

 

1 Tbs 

 

garlic, chopped

lemons, zested and juiced

 

 

 

salt and pepper to taste

 

 

1

Marinate shrimp in cajun seasoning, olive oil, lemon and cilantro for 3-4 hours.

2

Heat grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Grill the shrimp with the shells on. The shells keep the meat moist and add a whole new realm of flavor to the shrimp. This should take 8-10 minutes. Baste with marinade repeatedly while cooking. Before serving, slip shells off.

3

Mix the melted butter, chipotle chile, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and season with salt and pepper as needed. Use this mixture to drizzle on top of the cooked shrimp.
