Because no one wants to be the host who accidentally served 3 shrimp per person. That’s not a dinner — that’s a tease. Shrimp is luxurious but not impossible to nail. You’re basically a seafood chef now.
The coolest part? You can adjust everything to your vibe. Hungry? Bigger shrimp. Dieting? Less butter, more lemon. Lazy? Buy the pre-cooked kind and just reheat. Flexibility is the secret sauce.
So next time you’re at the seafood counter, don’t stress. Grab half a pound to a pound, tell the fishmonger it’s for two, and watch them nod knowingly. You’ve got this. Now go make that garlic butter. 🦐
