| Cajun Shrimp Pasta - Adam
R. Jonas
Yield: 4 Servings
Prepared for us by Adam Jonas when he visited our little cooking shack on the island. It is hard for anyone to wrestle the kitchen away for KOC and GOG, but we relented and this turned out to be a fantastic dish. We increased this recipe by 4 times because of the big crowd. It fed 9 adults and a gaggle of children and some leftover for the next hunger pain (as if that ever happens)....
