OLIVE SKEWERS AND SPICED GRILLED SHRIMP FOR DINNER: TRY THE RECIPE
She continued, “Serve grilled lemons on the side to squeeze on top just before serving to make the dish even more fancy.”
Add the lemon zest or citric acid, salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning to the shrimp and toss.
In a big saucepan over medium heat, melt three tablespoons of butter and olive oil.
When aromatic, add the minced garlic and sauté it.
To glaze the pan, add the white wine. In the saucepan, add the shrimp and cook for approximately two minutes on each side. When the shrimp curl into a “C” shape and turn pink, you will know they are done on that side.
