A Savory Journey into Christi Beraud’s Louisiana BBQ Shrimp Recipe

Christi Beraud, a well-known Cajun foodie, cake designer, and second-grade teacher hailing from Maurice, Louisiana, guides us through the creation of a traditional and mouthwatering Louisiana BBQ Shrimp dish in her latest video. Christi’s love for Cajun cuisine, combined with her bubbly personality and distinct Cajun accent, adds a special touch to the dish.

Ingredients for Louisiana BBQ Shrimp

True to her Cajun roots, Christi’s BBQ shrimp recipe incorporates classic Louisiana ingredients. The required elements for this dish include a stick of butter, half a cup of olive oil, thinly sliced onion, minced garlic (2 tablespoons), Worcestershire sauce (half a cup), Louisiana hot sauce (2 tablespoons), Cajun seasoning, cayenne pepper, shrimp (about a pound), French bread, lemon juice, parsley, and green onions.

Steps to Prepare the Dish

Making the Sauce

Christi starts the cooking process by melting a stick of butter and half a cup of olive oil in a pan. She then sautés a thinly sliced onion until it becomes translucent. Next, she adds two tablespoons of minced garlic to the pan, along with half a cup of Worcestershire sauce and two tablespoons of Louisiana hot sauce. Cajun seasoning and a hint of cayenne pepper are then added to enhance the flavor. The sauce simmers for 10 to 15 minutes, allowing all the ingredients to blend together harmoniously.

Adding the Shrimp

Once the sauce is ready, about a pound of shrimp is added to the pan for cooking. As the shrimp cooks, it absorbs the flavors of the sauce, becoming succulent and spicy.

Serving the Dish

While the shrimp is cooking, Christi slices up some French bread and lightly butters it. The bread is then grilled to a perfect golden-brown crispness. Once the shrimp is cooked, she adds the juice of a lemon, parsley, and green onions to the sauce, elevating the taste to a whole new level. The Louisiana BBQ shrimp is served hot, accompanied by the grilled French bread, soaking up the robust, spicy, and buttery sauce.

Through her video, Christi proves that the shrimp might be the star of this dish, but it’s the unique sauce that truly steals the show. Christi Beraud’s Louisiana BBQ Shrimp is not just a recipe; it’s an invitation to experience the rich flavors and warmth of Cajun cuisine.
