Baked Shrimp Cakes

Welcome back to the All Things Southern kitchen, friends. I’ve got a fine recipe for y’all today. Let me show you how you can whip up my Baked Shrimp Cakes!

“Baked Shrimp Cakes”

1 lb jumbo shrimp- deveined and cut into 1/4
2 tablespoons mayo
2 cups crushed Ritz crackers
2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon parsley
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/2 cup each of celery and onion, chopped

I’ve deveined and chopped up a pound of jumbo shrimp into bite-size pieces. Now we’ll take a large bowl, dump in our shrimp and add two tablespoons mayonnaise, two cups of crushed Ritz crackers, along with a half cup each of chopped onion and chopped celery, and two tablespoons lemon juice.

We’ll mix all of these ingredients together and season with a tablespoon of parsley, red pepper flakes, Cajun seasoning and garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste and mix in one slightly beaten egg to bind everything together. Form it into large patties and refrigerate for an hour or so and before baking at 350 for 20 minutes. Enjoy!
