Voodoo Cajun Shrimp & Rice Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons Voodoo Cajun Spice

  • 1 cup long grain rice

  • 2 cups chicken broth

  • 1 red bell pepper, diced

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Juice of ½ lemon (optional)

  • Chopped green onion or parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. Season the shrimp:
    In a bowl, toss shrimp with 1 tablespoon of Voodoo Cajun Spice. Set aside.

  2. Sauté veggies:
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add rice & spice:
    Stir in the rice and remaining tablespoon of Voodoo Cajun Spice. Cook for 1–2 minutes to toast the rice and bloom the spices.

  4. Simmer:
    Pour in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, until rice is cooked.

  5. Cook the shrimp:
    Once rice is nearly done, nestle in the seasoned shrimp. Cover and cook for 5–6 minutes, until shrimp are pink and cooked through.

  6. Finish & serve:
    Squeeze lemon juice over the top, garnish with chopped parsley or green onions, and serve hot.
