TIPS

Shrimp cook fast, be careful to not overcook them! You want them to have what I can best describe as a pop when you bite into them. You definitely don't want shrimp with a chewy texture.

I like to use 24 count per pound; it's not too big and not too small.

This pairs perfectly on a green salad with black beans and mango avocado salsa over a bed of brown rice or buckwheat.

Save the shrimp shells to make seafood broth. Store the shells in the freezer if you don't make it right away.
