CREOLE-SPICED SHRIMP PO'BOYS
My father is Cajun, and I grew up eating Cajun food. This easy recipe makes me think of happy childhood memories. Sometimes I use oysters or crawfish instead of-or in addition to-the shrimp. -Stacey Johnson, Bonney Lake, Washington

Steps:
- Using small kitchen scissors, cut shrimp shells along the curved backs. Remove vein, keeping shell intact. (Skip this step if using peeled deveined shrimp.) Toss shrimp and next 9 ingredients in a large bowl.
- Place four 16x12" sheets of heavy-duty foil on a work surface. Divide shrimp mixture among sheets. Fold all foil edges toward the center to accommodate the liquid; do not crimp. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 1/4 cup water to each. Crimp tightly to seal. Preheat oven to 325°F. Arrange packets in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Alternatively, build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.

This shrimp boil recipe admittedly requires a lot of ingredients, but don't be put off. In this boil, fennel seed, cloves, allspice and a host of other spices infuse sweet shrimp with flavors straight out of the bayou, while also filling your kitchen with an intoxicating aroma.

CREOLE SPICED SHRIMP
This recipe can be made on the grill or baked in the oven. I prefer the grill, but sometimes weather doesn't cooperate! Shell on shrimp produces the most flavor, but if you prefer to remove the shells, use them for seafood broth. The shells are like bones and render lots of flavor.
