Pro Tips for Making Creamy Garlic Butter Shrimp Bowl
- Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture; if using frozen, ensure they are fully thawed and patted dry.
- Don’t rush the garlic; sauté it until fragrant but avoid burning for the best flavor.
- Add a splash of lemon juice or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives for brighter flavor.
- Feel free to customize the bowl by adding vegetables like spinach, peas, or bell peppers for extra color and nutrition.
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a dairy-free alternative like coconut cream.
