I had a bag of thawed shrimp and some tomatoes I needed to use up. This dish was delicious over my Basmati rice. Just the right amount of spice. Quick and easy...what's not to like?

Enjoy!

In a large skillet, melt butter with olive oil.
Add the shrimp and cook until turning opaque.
Add the Cajun seasoning, stir. Now, add salt and pepper to taste.
