These Cajun Shrimp Deviled Eggs are a bold twist on the classic appetizer. Creamy, tangy deviled eggs are topped with juicy Cajun-spiced shrimp and a drizzle of smoky sauce. They’re elegant enough for parties and flavorful enough to disappear in minutes. The secret? A touch of Cajun seasoning in both the egg filling and on the shrimp for double the flavor punch.
