I love shrimp. It is so easy to cook, and you can make shrimp into so many different meals. Anything from shrimp cocktail or bacon-wrapped shrimp for an appetizer to shrimp fajitas, shrimp tacos, and even shrimp diablo.

We’ve fried shrimp in panko, “fried” it in the pellet grill, and made it spicy shrimp in marinara. You can cook shrimp in the air fryer, make shrimp fried rice, shrimp stir-fry, coconut shrimp, or shrimp ceviche.

I told you that we love shrimp!

How to make a Blackened Shrimp Caesar Wrap

  1. Assemble the salad.
    You want to go from the pan to your mouth as fast as possible with shrimp, so prep the salad ingredients first and have them ready to go as soon as the shrimp are done. Don’t add the dressing quite yet though. A freshly dressed salad is the best salad!
  2. Cook the shrimp.
    A good cast-iron skillet or gas griddle is perfect for shrimp. You want to cook it fast and furious and JUST long enough so the shrimp is cooked but not too far so it is tough and chewy.
  3. Soften up your tortillas.
    If you are using a gas griddle, toss your tortilla on the griddle for about 30-60 seconds over low heat to soften them up and make them more pliable. 
  4. Toss the salad.
    Place the shrimp into the salad mix. If you used giant shrimp you might want to give it a quick dice with a sharp knife first. Mix the dressing into the salad and toss with tongs to evenly coat.
  5. Roll it all up.
    Take the filling, place about 1 – 1 1/2 cups of the mixture into the wrap, fold the bottom up, and roll like a burrito.

Leftovers?

I recommend making only as much as you can eat in one sitting. Shrimp and salad don’t make great leftovers, so avoid it when possible. 

If you do wind up with extras, make sure to only dress as much salad as you’ll eat right away. You can get away with keeping it overnight if you don’t put the Caesar dressing on.

What else can you do with the Blackstone Blackened Shrimp?

This shrimp works well on its own alongside a side of pasta (like my Creamy Noodles), or rice (like my Wild Rice Pilaf).

You can also make Blackened Shrimp Pasta too.
