Is Cajun seasoning spicy?

Yes, Cajun seasoning is spicy because it contains cayenne pepper. The level of spiciness can vary from brand to brand, so be sure to test yours before using it.

Can I make Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp with frozen shrimp?

Frozen shrimp work great here. Be sure to let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight before marinading.

Do I really have to marinate bourbon chicken and shrimp for 24 hours?

For the best flavor, I really recommend it. But you can marinate them for as little as 2 hours.

What should I serve Bourbon Street chicken and shrimp with?

For the true Applebee’s experience, serve this chicken and shrimp with garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed mushrooms and onions.

While the mushrooms and onions are optional, they add even more flavor to this dish and are worth pairing with your chicken and shrimp. If you’re not a fan of mushrooms, you can omit them and use the sauteed onions instead.

    The taste is there but we all felt it was SUPER salty (and I like salt) I’d do it again but I’d cut the salt down.
