Why We Love This Shrimp Recipe
Sure, you could make this recipe with just any shrimp, and it would probably taste good enough – but “good enough” isn’t good enough when it comes to dinnertime! That’s why we’re making this dish with Omaha Steaks Wild Argentinian Red Shrimp! Wild-caught off the coast of South America and peeled, deveined, and flash-frozen as soon as they leave the boat, just one bite into these lean, low-fat beauties will make you think you’re actually enjoying sweet, succulent lobster! And with their gorgeous natural red hue and super-sized presentation, eating well never looked so good.
