Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Cook: In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil. Add the Cajun seasoning and raw shrimp cooking for 2-3 minutes until just pink and opaque. Drain and immediately, place in a bowl of ice to cool but do not rinse.

2. 2

   mix: In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, sugar and salt until the sugar dissolves.

3. 3

   combine: Add the remaining ingredients and the cooled shrimp, toss to coat. The shrimp needs to be stored completely covered by the mixture. This is easiest to do in tall jars. Add more olive to cover if needed.

4. 4

   chill: Refrigerate for at least 24 hours, up to 3 days before serving.
