These cute skewers are packed with juicy sausage and shrimp with homemade cajun seasoning. And the flavors are AH-MAZING!
Appetizers are everything, especially during the holiday season. It’s the absolute must-have centerpiece for your elegant and sophisticated hors d’oeuvre, except your guests will have no idea how easy this really is.
They’ll be too busy begging for seconds and thirds. Because let’s face it. No one wants to be the awkward one to take that very last one on the plate, even though they’re secretly dying inside.
And thanks to Calphalon’s Contemporary Self-Sharpening 15-pc. Cutlery set with SharpIN Technology, this recipe comes together in minutes. And if you’re really short on time, store-bought cajun seasoning will work just fine.
Just be sure to serve this with that epic Sriracha cream sauce. It pairs beautifully with the sharp, spicy flavors of the cajun spice, and with the Sriracha, you just can’t go wrong here.

1. To make the Sriracha cream sauce, whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha and condensed milk in a small bowl; set aside.

3. Thread shrimp and sausage onto 4-inch-long skewers or toothpicks.
