Cajun Shrimp and Rice for Two

April 14, 2023 By Terry

This Cajun Shrimp and Rice recipe is perfect for those nights when you want something different for dinner but don’t have a lot of time. 

Cajun Shrimp and Rice for one, two, or a party

One of the great things about this recipe is that it’s easy to scale up or down depending on how many servings you need. We make this for just the two of us, and I can guarantee you there are zero leftovers. Want more rice? No problem. More shrimp? Easy. We typically make this with five jumbo shrimp for each of us. I then follow the rice recipe to get the correct number of servings. Add the seasonings, and voila! 

The original recipe came from Food.com and was designed for 4-6 servings. I cut this version in half and did a little tweaking. Here’s a tip: if you’re making this for more people, get more creative with the bell peppers. Go for multiple colors. It will add a lot of color to your dish! And who doesn’t like a pretty dinner?

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.
