Here's a couple ideas..... Shrimp and Bacon SkewersCombine two of the most delicious proteins in this easy-to-make skewers recipe. The smoky flavor of bacon complements the sweetness of shrimp, making it a fantastic appetizer or main dish. Ingredients: shrimp, bacon, salt, pepper, and your choice of seasoning. Instructions: Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap each shrimp in a slice of bacon, securing it with a skewer. Season with salt and pepper, then grill for about 10 minutes, turning until bacon is crispy. I will say you can probably add some cheese into that bacon and shrimp as well. Shrimp and Beef Stir-FryThis protein-packed dish combines the bold flavors of shrimp with tender beef. It’s a hearty meal that’s sure to satisfy your cravings while keeping you within your dietary guidelines. Ingredients: shrimp, beef strips, butter, garlic, salt, and pepper. Instructions: In a hot skillet, melt butter and add beef strips, searing until browned. Add shrimp and garlic, continuing to stir-fry until shrimp are pink. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately. And then if you don't mind some herbs/plants... Lemon Herb ShrimpThis light and zesty dish is perfect for a warm day. The lemon and herbs elevate the flavor of the shrimp, making it a refreshing option for lunch or dinner. Ingredients: shrimp, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, fresh herbs (like parsley or basil), salt, and pepper. Instructions: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped herbs. Add shrimp and marinate for at least 30 minutes. Cook shrimp in a skillet over medium heat until they turn pink and slightly charred. Garlic Butter ShrimpThis classic dish combines succulent shrimp with rich, flavorful garlic butter. Perfect for a quick dinner or an impressive appetizer, this recipe is both easy to prepare and incredibly satisfying. Ingredients: shrimp, butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice. Instructions: In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and cook until pink. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. For fish, I usually oven bake pre-seasoning it generously with Old Bay Seasoning. I'll drizzle with lemon and/or I will use tartar sauce. If I can't make my own tartar sauce I will use a store bought option, which will contain seed oils - but this is one of the rare times I might use some so I am not personally bothered by it.
