Ingredients
-
1 / 2 pound large shrimp, cleaned. (raw or cooked)
-
4 T sugar free ketchup
-
1-2 tsp Stacey Hawkins Kickin’ Cajun Seasoning
Directions
In a small bowl, combine the ketchup and Cajun seasoning. Set aside to let the flavors develop.
If using raw shrimp, steam or boil until cooked. Clean and chill in an ice water bath.
If using precooked shrimp, rinse & dry well.
Measure 2 ounces of shrimp for an appetizer, 7 ounces for a meal. Place the shrimp over the rim of a cocktail glass. For a little more presentation, you can place a small leaf of lettuce in the bottom of the glass.
Place 1 Tablespoon of sauce in the bottom of the glass (or use the entire portion for a meal.) Place the glass in the refrigerator and chill until ready to serve.
