Instructions
1. Prepare the Steak:
In a bowl, toss the steak strips with olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the steak strips and cook for 3–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until your desired doneness. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. Cook the Shrimp:
In the same skillet, add olive oil and garlic; sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp, Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Cook 2–3 minutes per side until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and toss gently.
3. Serve:
Arrange the steak and shrimp on a platter.
Garnish with fresh parsley or lemon wedges.
Serve alongside rice, potatoes, or crusty bread.
Tips & Tricks (Nsa2i7):
Choose the right steak: Ribeye is tender and juicy, while sirloin is leaner and slightly firmer.
Don’t overcook the shrimp: They cook fast; overcooking makes them rubbery.
Cajun seasoning: Adjust to your spice preference; add a pinch of cayenne for extra heat.
Marinate for extra flavor: Let steak and shrimp sit in seasoning for 15–30 minutes before cooking.
Smoky touch: Smoked paprika adds depth but is optional.
Balance flavors: Lemon juice brightens the dish and balances the richness of steak.
