Tips for the lemon garlic shrimp recipe

  • For the best result, use medium-sized shrimp, as larger shrimp tend to be rubbery in texture if they cook too long. Peel off the shell, you can leave the tail on just like we did in the pictures (it’s great for presentation) or remove it if you like.

What to serve with lemon garlic shrimp?

This quick shrimp recipe is best served with garlic noodles. For a wholesome meal and easy weeknight dinner, we also recommend serving with zucchini noodles, cauliflower rice, or a crisp salad on the side.

How to store the shrimp leftovers?

You can keep the lemon garlic shrimp leftovers in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat on a skillet or microwave with a few drops of water to loosen the sauce.
