Any good shrimp recipes?

[Deleted]

It was on super sale on the store so I have like 6 bags of the frozen pre-cooked stuff.

We actually eat a lot of it because it's easy and H loves it.

I usually do:
Some doctored up but dumbed down version of shrimp scampi over noodles.
Saute it in garlic, oil and lemon
Use on one of the 30 minute marinades and saute
Eat it as shrimp cocktail.

So anything other than that would be great...

I was JUST searching for shrimp recipes! We went to a hibachi grill for my birthday last weekend, and the kids LOVED the shrimp. Looks like I need to start cooking it at home! Hopefully someone gives us some good ones.

Here's a couple recipes I've made off of Pinterest:

Shrimp tacos. I do t make them because I'm allergic, but h always orders them when were out.

Since it's all precooked, you'll have to be careful that you make something that doesn't cook it again (which makes it rubbery and gross).

You could do shrimp cakes - just like salmon cakes except use shrimp (chopped in the food processor). Since you quick fry them in patty form, they should be fine.

Shrimp tacos - just make a great sauce and warm them up. I wouldn't bread and fry them.

Cilantro shrimp (excuse the bad picture, it's from a long time ago!) - just throw the shrimp in the last minute: seeaimeecook.blogspot.com/2010/07/cilantro-shrimp.html

Gumbo and/or Jambalaya - just throw it in at the end with enough time to warm through

Shrimp and grits - you can throw the shrimp in towards the end (I have a couple versions on my blog, or you could Google)

Fried rice

Fettucine Alfredo

Taco salad

This spicy orange shrimp recipe is my favorite shrimp dish. Simple, quick and delicious. I always get compliments on it when we have company over.

This soup is fabulous:

Thai corn soup with shrimp

1 tsp canola oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbls minced peeled fresh ginger

½ tsp hot chili paste or sirachi

4 cups chicken stock/broth

1 can (14 ¾ oz) creamed corn

1 (8oz) package frozen small shrimp

2 teaspoons thai fish sauce (nam pla)

1 tbls water

2 tsp cornstarch

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp Asian (dark) sesame oil

1 large egg, lightly beaten

¼ c fresh cilantro

¼ tsp paprika



1. In a large nonstick saucepan over medium heat, heat the canola oil, then add the garlic, ginger, and chili paste. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

2. Stir in the stock, corn, shrimp, and fish sauce, bring to a boil. Simmer until the flavors are blended, 15 minutes.

3. In a small bowl, whisk 1 tbls water, cornstarch, sugar, and sesame oil until well blended and stir into the soup. Stir in the egg. Return soup to a simmer and cook until soup thickens slightly and egg sets into long strands, about 3 minutes. Stir in cilantro and paprika.

Thanks girls! I'm looking forward to some of these!
Yeah, I can't cook it for a long time or anything but I've never had an issue if I cook it when it's just a bit frozen yet...I have never had it get rubbery that way.
