Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 -3 tsp cajun seasoning
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
kernels from 6 ear of corn (about 3 cups)
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 roasted red pepper, cored and diced (optional)
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp dried ancho chile powder
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper

Directions:

In medium bowl combine the shrimp and Cajun seasoning. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook about 3 minutes, then add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until shrimp are cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes.
Meanwhile, steam the corn kernels for 3 to 4 minutes. Let the shrimp and corn cool to room temperature. (Note: Microwave Corn on the Cob is the easiest and best method.).
In a large serving bowl, combine the shrimp, corn, tomatoes, roasted red pepper if using and parsley. In a small bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients and add to the salad. Mix well and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve at room temperature.
