Shrimp recipes are some of my favorites to make because they cook quickly even when you have a bag of wild frozen shrimp. These are the shrimp dinners I turn to on weeknights when I need dinner fast and on weekends when I want something that feels a step up without a lot of work.
What You’ll Find in These Shrimp Recipes
Some of these recipes are fast, like shrimp tacos or a quick skillet with chimichurri, and sweet tomatoes. A classic Puerto Rican shrimp stew traditionally called asopao de camarones with Puerto Rican seasoning and a touch of rice. Shrimp pasta salads are perfect any day, and dishes with chimichurri, cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
