To make Cajun Shrimp Egg Rolls, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1/2 cup of diced onion
- 1/2 cup of diced red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup of diced green bell pepper
- 1/2 cup of diced celery
- 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 package of egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying
To begin, season the shrimp with Cajun seasoning and set aside. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, red and green bell peppers, and celery, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the diced tomatoes, parsley, and cilantro, and remove from heat.
To assemble the egg rolls, place a spoonful of the shrimp mixture in the center of an egg roll wrapper. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Repeat with the remaining egg roll wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 375 degrees F. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
