1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (the little swimmers)
1 tbsp olive oil (more liquid gold!)
2 tbsp unsalted butter (because butter makes everything better)
3 cloves garlic, minced (vampire protection, Cajun style)
1 cup heavy cream (we’re not counting calories today)
1/2 cup chicken broth (for that extra flavor kick)
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning (the life of the party)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (because cheese, that’s why)
1/4 cup chopped parsley (for that pop of color and freshness)
Salt and black pepper (you know the drill)
Let’s Get Cookin’, Good Lookin’!
Steak Sizzle:
Season those steaks like they insulted your mama.
Heat up that skillet hotter than a Louisiana summer.
Sear steaks to your liking (4-5 mins per side for medium-rare, if you’re fancy).
Let ’em rest. Patience, grasshopper!
Shrimp Shindig:
In the same skillet (hello, flavor town!), sauté those shrimp until they’re pinker than a sunburned tourist.
Set aside your crustacean friends for now.
Sauce Sorcery:
Sauté garlic until your kitchen smells like heaven.
Pour in chicken broth and cream. Stir like you’re stirring up trouble.
Add Cajun seasoning. This is where the magic happens!
Let it simmer and thicken. Good things come to those who wait.
Melt in that Parmesan. Watch it disappear like a magic trick.
Reunite the sauce with the shrimp. It’s a happy family reunion!
Adjust seasonings. You’re the boss, applesauce!
Toss in parsley. Green is good for you, right?
The Grand Finale:
Plate those beautiful steaks.
Smother ’em with your shrimpy, creamy masterpiece.
Garnish with extra parsley if you’re feeling fancy.
