Gulf Colossal Shrimp 10-15 count (1 lb.) Handling & Preparation
Our shrimp will arrive fresh to your door. Fresh shrimp can be stored for up to three days after they arrive and frozen can be kept up to four months.
To thaw frozen shrimp, place shrimp in your refrigerator for 48 hours, or defrost under gently running, cold water for 20 to 30 minutes.
Thawed shrimp cook quickly. They are best prepared in sautes, casseroles, and other stove-top methods. Add raw shrimp about five minutes before the end of the cooking process, so that the shrimp can cook through, but not become tough.
Shrimp can also be steamed or boiled for about 6 minutes.

Garlic Butter Shrimp Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 lb of 10-15 count shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 3 tbsp butter
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
Instructions:
- Prep the Shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes if using.
- Cook the Shrimp: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and cook for about 1-2 minutes per side, until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
- Make Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Combine: Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to heat the shrimp through and coat them in the sauce.
- Finish and Serve: Remove from heat, squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with rice, pasta, or a side of veggies!
