Thai-Inspired Garlic Shrimp 🍤
This recipe blew my socks off (in a good way)! It’s salty, spicy, and savory. It’s also fancy enough to serve at a dinner party, but easy enough to whip together for lunch. A winning recipe if ever I saw one! Just make sure any guests you’re serving are okay with a bit of spice 😁. If they’re not, you can always dial back on the spice and it will still taste great! We made a non-spicy version for kids at a dinner party that we recently attended. Both adults and kids love this dish. ♥️

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Thaw the shrimp in a large bowl of cold water. Drain and pat dry.
- 2
Mince the garlic. Add it to a bowl with the salt and grind/crush it with a pestle.
- 3
Transfer the crushed garlic to a bowl and stir in the sambal and the oil. Pictured is the sambal that I used. I chose this one because I felt that the lemongrass would go well with the shrimp. There are other types available, and you can choose whichever one suits your fancy.
- 4
Wash and chop the Thai basil.
- 5
Add the basil and oil mixture to the shrimp and stir together. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Remove from the refrigerator about 5 minutes before cooking.
- 6
Melt the butter in a skillet at medium-low heat.
- 7
Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet and cook on one side for about 3 minutes.
Turn the shrimp over and cook on the other side until done (about 3 more minutes).
- 8
Stir in the wine to deglaze the pan and coat the shrimp with the liquid.
The flesh of the shrimp should be snowy white and have an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C)
- 9
Serve immediately and pour the pan liquid over the shrimp.
You can serve the shrimp over rice or noodles, but they are also delicious just as is! - 10
Notes.
🍤 If you don’t have Thai basil, regular basil will work.🍤 If you want a spicier dish, add more sambal. You can also use chili garlic paste, or a dash of cayenne pepper, or even Sriracha, depending on what you like.

I learned this from my husband who was born and raised in Hawaii.If you cook this over high heat, the garlic will burn, so try to keep it set on low.This time, I kept the shells on, but if you remove them, they'll be easier to eat and you won't have to dirty your hands. Recipe by Kuronyan kitchen

Hawaiian Style Garlic Shrimp Hawaiian Style Garlic Shrimp
We eat this without fail on our yearly trips to Hawaii. The ones over there have a lot of garlic and are very oily, so I went easy on both. I bought various marinades and tried them out, but I think this version which can be made with easy to obtain ingredients is the closest to the original.Just marinate! Anyone can make this easily.You can use cheap shrimp like the black tiger variety.Adjust the amount of garlic and black pepper to taste. For 2 servings. Recipe by Okirakushufu -

Easy 10 minute shrimp thats packed with a rediculous amount of flavor and a pinch of heat. The secret? Curry Paste! Which has allot of amazing flavors such as , lemongrass , garlic & ginger! ) I didnt have sesame seeds on hand but I definitely recommend adding them! If you want a heavier meal you can add the shrimp over some white rice!
