Recipes: Cajun Shrimp

This is some text inside of a div block.

Don’t skip the shrimp!

This cajun shrimp recipe is off-the-chain fantastic! The spices remind you of delicious traditional Southern cuisine, and it’s topped off with a savory cilantro dressing. Serve with some fresh veggies and/or grains for a full meal!

The real treat here is how nutritious these shrimp are. They’re low in calories, carbs, and sugar, and high in protein. Plus, you’ll grill the shrimp on skewers, which is healthier for you than frying them.

Shrimp has never looked—or tasted—this good before!

Ingredients

Fitbody Bootcamp

For the Cajun Spice Blend

  • 1 teaspoon of sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • 1/2 of a teaspoon of ground black pepper
  • 1/2 of a teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1/2 of a teaspoon of ground cayenne pepper
  • 3/4 of a teaspoon of dried oregano
  • 3/4 of a teaspoon of dried thyme
  • 1/4 of a teaspoon of red pepper flakes

For the Shrimp

  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 20 extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined

For the Cilantro Dressing

  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
  • 1/4 of a cup of fresh cilantro, minced
  • 3 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons of scallions, white only, minced
  • 1/4 of a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the spice blend and mix well. Add in the olive oil and shrimp and toss until well-coated.
  2. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Skewer the shrimp by poking through the thickest part of the shrimp and through the tail, so that it is secured in two places. Grill until cooked through, turning halfway through (about 7 minutes).
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the cilantro dressing ingredients. Brush the dressing over the cooked shrimp and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Lee Ann Coady

I needed something to motivate me and hold me accountable, and FBBC was close to my home so I gave it a try. That was 4 weeks ago. I was hooked after day one. I used to work out in a traditional self- guided weight training program years ago, and I can say I've never worked as hard or had as much fun doing it as I have here at FBBC. The coaches are beyond awesome and the fellow members become a family, cheering you on and missing you when you aren't there. Whatever your fitness level is (or has been) this is a place that is welcoming to everyone!

Jolina Eva

I’ve never felt more comfortable at a gym. This place I can call home and keeps me motivated like I’ve never been before! I hope to continue my lifestyle change with FBBC. The team is amazing, as well as everyone you meet in the classes, it’s more like a family ???

Kel Kohler

I just finished my first week at Fit Body Boot Camp and it was awesome! The coaches are great, very helpful and knowledgeable. It doesn't matter your fitness level! You can be like me and not seen the inside of a gym in 20 years or you can be a triathlete. Everyone is positive and supportive and even though it is hard we are still having fun! I highly recommend FBBC, it's a gym for everyone!

Kristen Fragoso

Couldn’t have asked for a better fit body family! The transformation that my body has made in just one month has been incredible, I can’t wait to see where I will be a year from today(:

Michelle Smallwood

I can't say enough great things about the staff and workouts here! If you feel like the lbs. aren't coming off no matter what you do...try this! I have gained so much knowledge, strength, energy and best of all confidence to continue my fitness journey. The lbs. are melting and my clothes are getting looser!!! My chronic migraines have almost completely disappeared!!! It definitely works!

Thy Ly

I really hate working out, however this class is actually perfect for me. I constantly make excuses of not having time to work out, but mostly I'm not really sure how to lift weights  and not very motivated after a long day of work. With my busy schedule, I'm able to fit in the 3-4, 40 min classes a week. I have been feeling stronger than the first day I started and learning many ways to get an effective workout efficiently. I like that this class does not waste time. All the coaches are great with subtly pushing you to work a little hard each time they see you. So even though I hate working out, I have appreciated my increases in strength, energy level, and motivation.
