This quick, easy and delicious recipe can be served as an appetizer, over rice as an entree, or even on a salad!

Servings: 2 to 4
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

• Aprox. 12 large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
• 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
• Salt, if needed
• Cayenne pepper
• Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil
• Rice (for serving)
• Salad (for serving)

Lay shrimp in a single layer on a plate. Generously sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the seasoning over the shrimp. Flip over to other side and season with the rest of the seasoning. Lightly sprinkle with salt if you used a salt free seasoning. Add cayenne pepper if you want a spicier shrimp.

Heat 1/4 inch coconut oil in frying pan. Fry shrimp in medium to high heat until you start to see the edges turn white, approximately 2 minutes.

Flip and cook other side, approximately 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Do not overcook.
