CAJUN-STYLE BROILED SHRIMP
Shrimp, the most versatile seafood, is now the most popular in America, and there is no wrong way to eat it. Wild shrimp from the Pacific or the Gulf of Mexico is a treat if you can find it. Fresh local shrimp from Maine or the Carolinas is an even rarer gem. (These are all preferable from a sustainability perspective.) A vast majority, of course, is farmed and frozen. If you buy it ''individually quick frozen'' in resealable bags, you can take out only as many as you want and thaw them by leaving the shrimp in the fridge for 24 hours or running them under cool water for an hour or less. Here, it is made Cajun with cayenne, paprika and garlic and quickly broiled.

This grilled shrimp recipe came from a neighbor, Katie. These shrimp are a nice change from the regular Cocktail shrimp. The ingredient list looks long, but very easy to make with sprices/herbs that are usually onhand. Easy make-ahead, or bring with appetizer. Frozen shrimp work great.

SHRIMP IN CAJUN BEER BROTH
Having purchased large head-on shrimp, I wanted to do something other than steam them. I decided to cook them in a broth to take advantage of the extra flavor the heads would lend. My boyfriend loved the broth so much that he practically drank it. We put it over bowls of rice to accompany the shrimp, wishing I had a loaf of garlic bread to dip in it. I used red onion because I had it on hand, but any combination of onion, garlic and/or shallot would be delicious! I think I will saute diced celery with the onion mixture next time and add chopped parsley or cilantro at the end for garnish. Very simple, tasty and ready in minutes!
