Easy Shrimp Stir Fry

Stir fry is one of the best answers when you've got a lot of vegetables in the fridge to use up and don't quite know what to do with all of them before they're about to spoil.

This version of stir fry uses shrimp because not only are they delicious but they cook so quickly too. Shrimp can cook in 3 minutes or less, plus the veggies cook in 5!

Have family or friends help with the prep (chopping the vegetables and peeling the shrimp) and you'll have dinner ready in no time! I'm telling you—easy shrimp recipes are perfect for weeknight dinners.

Shrimp Stir Fry is delicious over white rice, but try it with brown rice, cauliflower rice, or rice noodles as well.

Homemade Shrimp Fried Rice

This easy shrimp fried rice recipe is a classic stir-fry favorite! It's completely delicious and easily worthy of being included in your dinner rotation on repeat.

I've made this version to be generous with the vegetables including carrots, onions, peas, bell pepper and cilantro. And you'll also find a fair amount of shrimp to make it more of a meal in one.

The important thing to note here (as with just about any fried rice recipe) is that you'll want to use leftover rice from the day before so it will soak up the moisture and doesn't end up soggy. In other words plan ahead if you don't usually have some on hand.

The chopping will take a bit of time but from there it's a total breeze and it cooks quickly. And when it's done to make it spicy finish your serving with Sriracha to your hearts content.

Easy Fried Shrimp

A basic recipe that is most definitely one of the ultimate ways to make shrimp! You'll absolutely love it and it may likely make it's way to your list of favorites!

This fried shrimp makes for the ultimate appetizer, impressive party food, or crave-able main dish.

It's easy to make and really less intimidating than you may think.

You just go with a basic process of breading - coat with flour, dip in egg then cover in bread crumbs. Then from there shrimp are ready to deep-fry.

And to finish you can just serve with vibrant fresh lemon wedges for spritzing or your favorite shrimp sauce for dipping. Yum!

What is Ceviche?

Ceviche is a healthy Peruvian dish that is usually served as an appetizer. It's generally made from raw fresh fish or shrimp, that's marinated in lemon and/or lime citrus juices. The acidity in the citrus cures the fish causing it to denature the proteins and become firm and opaque while absorbing flavor.

After the seafood has sort of cooked in a way other ingredients are tossed in such as onions, cilantro, peppers and tomatoes.

It's such a vibrant dish that's perfect for weekends or parties. Truly a recipe seafood lovers will instantly fall in love with, especially when you pair it with freshly fried or baked, homemade tortilla chips!

And for those that love heat, finish it with hot sauce.

Using Cooked or Raw Shrimp

This version actually cooks the shrimp first in boiling water (to reduce any risk of pathogens and food borne illness, the safest option and definitely recommend for pregnant women, children, the elderly and anyone with a compromised immune system).

But if you aren't worried about it, for the most authentic version you can skip pre-cooking the shrimp and just soak and "cook" in the marinade instead.

For raw shrimp version: Soak the raw shrimp in the 1/2 cup lemon juice and 1/2 cup lime juice for 30 - 60 minutes in the fridge (or until shrimp are opaque), then add tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeno, salt and pepper and marinate 30 minutes longer. Then finish with avocado and cucumber.
