Summer is for seafood! What better way to kick off the hot and steamy months of summer than with a simple Salt & Pepper Shrimp recipe that takes minutes to prepare? You’re going to love this quick and easy dish.
This recipe uses a Good It’s Gluten Free Chinese Salt & Pepper Meal Kit, which includes a batter, breadcrumb coating, and salt and pepper seasoning mix. All you have to do is add the shrimp. I like to toss some cilantro leaves on top as garnish and serve these shrimp with lime wedges for that extra hint of flavor and summer freshness.
This recipe serves 4 as an appetizer or 2 as a main dish if you want to serve it with some sides like potato salad or coleslaw.
