Mince bell pepper, mayonnaise, Dijon, remaining 1 Tbsp. scallions, parsley, honey, and 1 tsp. lime juice in a mini food processor; season with salt and pepper. Chill rémoulade until ready to serve.
Toss shrimp with Cajun seasoning. Heat oil in a sauté pan over medium-high; add shrimp and cook until slightly blackened, about 2–3 minutes per side. Transfer shrimp to a paper-towel-lined plate.
