Fast, fancy, and full of flavor, shrimp is your secret weapon for effortless meals that feel gourmet. Toss it in pasta, skewer it for the grill, or sizzle it with garlic and butter. Dinner in under 20 minutes? Yes, please. These shrimp recipes are bound to impress (with zero stress)!
To avoid rubbery shrimp, cook until they just turn opaque and curl into a “C” shape, not a tight “O.” Quickly sear or sauté over high heat for 2–3 minutes per side. Pat dry before cooking, and use a quick dry brine (salt + baking soda) for tender results.
Grill shrimp over direct heat at 375–450°F for 1–2 minutes per side until opaque and light pink. Use large, wild shrimp and skewer them (or use a basket). Brush with oil, season with spices like Old Bay or garlic, and avoid overcooking.
