Preparación

1. 1

   Pat dry your shrimp (prawns) and place them in a bowl. Add the oil, seasoning, and toss to combine. Place in the fridge to marinate.

2. 2

   In a bowl or jar, combine the yogurt, Cajun seasoning, lime juice, salt, and olive oil. Whisk until smooth and creamy.

3. 3

   Heat a griddle pan or a grill over medium-high heat. Brush the corn cobs with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the corn for 7 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the ears are lightly browned. Remove from the grill and let cool.
