Sauteed 16-20ct. Shrimp in Olive Oil and Butter with Garlic, Lemon and Herbs!

[Fueling Around]

Thanks Chris! I like all shrimp, but if I had my preference, it would be 16-20 count inshore shrimp. Offshore shrimp can get too much iodine in them and that makes the meat a little more bitter instead of sweet. The legs tell the tail (no pun intended)......the more red they are-the more iodine in the shrimp. And if you look at the ones I cooked, you will notice the red legs. Might explain why they sat in the freezer for a year.......

Thanks for that tip. Never heard about red legs and iodine

I'm certain, I could eat a whole lot of that. Looks great

Looks awesome bet I could eat several bowls of those about now. Wife likes those sauteed shrimp I prefer battered and fried but usually end up eating some of both and yes I have to cook both kinds. You didn't include the amounts of the ingredients.

Great looking shrimp, and a favorite of ours too! I am a garlic freak!
Thanks for the paper towel trick, I hate cleaning out the sealer!
