Cajun Shrimp & Asparagus

If you are a cajun fan, you will enjoy this dish! My husband loved it and has requested it to be made again. It is simple! The most time consuming part is the rice and you know how easy it is to make rice. See below for portion control information (according to the 21 Day Fix ad Insanity Max: 30 meal plans)

1 Yellow, 1 Red, 1/2 Green, 1 Orange

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb shrimp, raw, tails and shell removed
  • 1lb fresh asparagus, chopped
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • Cajun spice mix (recipe can be found on the "Recipes" tab of my blog under the "Spices" section)
  • 1 Cup brown rice
Directions:
  • Cook brown rice as directed on the package. Begin cooking the rice 40 minutes before you begin to saute the shrimp so that both dishes finish cooking at about the same time.
  • In a large skillet, saute the shrimp and asparagus in the olive oil. Sprinkle with the cajun spice mix to your taste.
  • Saute until the shrimp is a vibrant pink color
  • Serve the Shrimp and Asparagus over the Brown Rice
Didn't I tell you it was easy?! I hope you enjoy!!
