Easy to make garlic shrimp with an irresistible aroma

garlic shrimp（ガーリックシュリンプ）

shrimp = ebi Whiteleg shrimp = vannamei shrimp

A fragrant grilled shrimp marinated in a garlic and lemon sauce.　This is a garlic shrimp recipe with an appetizing aroma.

With the popularity of Hawaii trips, garlic shrimp has become well established in Japan. The first time I ate it was when I was in college. It was when we went to Universal Studios. I was surprised that there was a dish that contained so many shrimps. I can’t think of a Japanese dish that uses this much shrimp. It is a good memory that I felt very delicious even though I was surprised.

The butter sauce with the fragrant aroma of the shrimp is exquisite, and one of the charms of this dish is eating it with this butter sauce on rice.

The sauce with cajun spice is also delicious, so I always make 2 types.

When using spices, I like to use Mascot’s Cajun mix (*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊

Shrimp is low in fat and high in protein. Recommended for those who care about their health.

Whiteleg shrimp is called vannamei shrimp in Japan. It is a variety available at any supermarket.

I feel that the shrimp preparation is troublesome, but I also like to work silently. But if you don’t have time or want to make a lot, use peeled shrimp.
