Wondering what to cook when you’re short on time but craving something scrumptious? Well, let’s talk about shrimp—the ultimate quick fix! Here are three easy options that pack in a lot of flavor. 

Garlic Butter Shrimp

This dish typically starts with fresh or thawed shrimp, which are sauteed in a generous amount of butter. The key to this dish is the garlic. Mince the garlic and add it to the butter to add a delicious flavor punch. Add a splash of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley to finish. 

Grilled Shrimp Skewers

Grilled shrimp skewers are perfect for outdoor barbecues or a simple family dinner. Start by marinating the shrimp in a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs like cilantro or parsley. Thread the shrimp onto skewers. Grill the skewers over medium heat until the shrimp are pink and slightly charred. 

Shrimp Stir-Fry

This dish is a vibrant mix of shrimp and a variety of vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots, all stir-fried in a hot wok or frying pan. Just make sure to cook the shrimp first and then set aside, so they don’t overcook while the vegetables are being prepared.

If you’re looking for a scrumptious, wholesome, and filling salad that can serve as a main meal, then look no further than a herbed shrimp and watercress salad. Here’s your guide to preparing this crunchy and succulent dish.

Your Ingredients

Toss some peeled deveined pieces of shrimp into a bowl with garlic, fennel seeds, lemon juice, and salt. In a separate small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, tarragon, and salt and pepper. Bathe the mixture in oil.

Prepare The Shrimp

One Pot Cilantro Lime Shrimp Scampi

Garlic butter mix doesn’t do it for everyone, and you shouldn’t despair if it’s not your cup of tea. Hardin has many other delicious shrimp combos in store and this recipe calls for some cilantro, freshly squeezed lime juice, and chardonnay.

Air Fryer Shrimp

An air fryer is one of the must-have kitchen appliances these days and you can use it to take all sorts of dishes to the next level. Shrimp is a case in point and you should air fry it to achieve the ultimate juicy and crispy taste.

Summer is all about fresh food, grilling, and especially seafood. Seafood like prawns and shrimp are at their peak in the summer, so why not buy some but put a twist on it?

A tandoori oven is normally used for chicken and naan, but you can get similar flavors from the right blend of Indian spices. Try this recipe for your next BBQ and you won’t be disappointed.

Marinade

Into a bowl, combine 1/3 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon of finely minced garlic (which can you also do with a microplane), 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala spice mix, 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of olive.

If you want them to be a deeper red, you can also use a little beet juice or beet powder. Throw 1 pound of shrimp into the bowl mix well, and cover in the fridge for 30 minutes up to 2 hours.

Grilling

Once the shrimp have marinaded for at least 30 minutes, wet some skewers and then put the shrimp onto them.

On a grill or a grill pan, cook on each side for just a few minutes until the shrimp turn pink and get a little charred. If you want to do it in the oven, roast for 10 minutes and then put them under the broiler for 1.

If you’re ever stuck for what to make for yourself for dinner after a long day, or even for lunch if you didn’t meal prep enough food, this shrimp salad is your answer. It comes together super quickly, has a ton of great ingredients, but won’t take you more than 10 minutes to put together.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw2hMYolo8_/

Recipe

  1. Start off by cooking the shrimp. You can do this by boiling the shrimp in salted water until it turns pink for the easiest and most hands-off method, or saute it with some garlic and butter for more flavor.
  2. While the shrimp cooks, start chopping up the vegetables. The first veggie you want to cut is the red onion. Put that in a bowl, squeeze over the juice of one lime and allow the onion to mellow out.
  3. Then, chop up tomatoes, a small jalapeno, and add that to the bowl as well.
  4. Roughly chop cilantro add that into the bowl, reserving some for presentation.
  5. If you want to make the dish a little fancier, in a pan with no oil, dry roast some shredded coconut or coconut flakes until they are slightly brown and fragrant.
  6. Add the coconut and the shrimp into the bowl.
  7. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle in a bit of olive oil, toss, and serve!
