Easy Shrimp Recipes for Dinner.

Expert Tips

For the juiciest shrimp, don’t overcook them! Shrimp cook fast—usually in 2-3 minutes per side. They’re done when they turn pink and opaque.

If they start curling into a tight "O" shape, they’re likely overcooked and can turn rubbery. Aim for a relaxed "C" shape instead!
