1

Marinate the shrimp

In a bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the shrimp and coat them in the marinade. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

2

Prepare the skewers

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Take the marinated shrimp and thread them onto skewers, alternating with pieces of bell peppers and red onions. This adds a pop of color and extra flavor to your skewers.

3

Grill the skewers

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook, as shrimp can become rubbery.

4

Serve and enjoy

Carefully remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Sprinkle with some freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness. Serve your zesty Cajun Shrimp Skewers hot and watch them disappear in no time!
