Easy Cajun Shrimp image

This was so simple and tasty with just the right amount of heat. I served it with a pre-packaged Cajun style rice but it would be great with white rice also.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 sprig fresh rosemary (rinsed)
1 lb shrimp, peeled & deveined
3 tablespoons butter
5 fresh garlic cloves, minced

1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Chop rosemary finely, using only leaves & set aside.

  • Crush garlic using a garlic press into the saute pan & cook two minutes, until golden in color.
