Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, whole grain mustard, sweet paprika, Cajun seasoning, capers, horseradish, pickle juice, hot sauce, and minced garlic. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Dry the shrimp with paper towels and season with the remaining spices—cayenne pepper if desired—ensuring even coating.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the seasoned shrimp in batches to avoid overcrowding and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve immediately with the remoulade.
