Shrimp in the Microwave
Description
A tasty appetizer for any gathering. Shrimp with beer, shrimp in salad, just shrimp—everyone in our family eats them. And of course, sometimes there isn’t enough of what was prepared for evening get-togethers with beer. That’s where this simple microwave shrimp recipe comes in handy. Honestly, I even like the taste of microwave shrimp better than shrimp boiled the traditional way. They’re somehow more tender. Try making shrimp with this simple recipe and see what you think. 1. If your shrimp are frozen, you need to thaw them. I put the shrimp in the package into a container with hot water. 2. Rinse the shrimp and let the water drain off. 3. Place the shrimp in a microwave-safe dish and cover with a mixture of soy sauce, water, and salt. 4. Shake the shrimp well so they mix evenly. 5. Microwave on full power for 3 minutes. 6. Stir and microwave for the same amount of time again. 7. Remove the cooked shrimp from the microwave, drain the liquid that has formed, sprinkle with lemon juice, and serve. Serve with herbs and sauce.
