Maciek’s Surf ‘N’ Turf

Ingredients:

• 2 Swift NY Strip Steaks
• 1 lb tiger shrimp (approx. 8-10 shrimp)
• 1 Tbsp kosher salt
• 1 Tbsp black pepper
• 1 Tbsp garlic powder
• 1 small lemon
• 1 Tbsp chopped parsley
• 2 Tbsp Cajun seasoning

Directions:

1. Remove the steaks from the packaging and pat them dry. Let the steaks come up to room temperature by leaving on your countertop for 45-60 minutes.
2. Mix the salt, pepper, garlic powder and season the steaks on all sides, making sure to get the edges.
3. For the shrimp, make sure they are deveined and cleaned, and the shell is removed.
4. Toss the shrimp in the Cajun seasoning, making sure they are coated evenly.
5. Warm up your grill to 450°F and grill the steaks directly over the heat source. Flip every minute to ensure an even cook and pull when the internal temperature is 125°F for medium rare or 135°F for medium, approx. 6-8 minutes.
6. Remove the steaks, cover loosely with foil and let them rest at room temperature.
7. While the steaks are resting, place the shrimp on the grill and cook for 1 minute per side. Remove when the shrimp are opaque, and the tails have turned red.
8. Plate the shrimp on your cutting board, topping with the chopped parsley and giving them a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
9. Slice the steaks into even slices and plate alongside the shrimp.
10. Enjoy!
