If you’re looking for exciting recipes to add more flavor to mealtime while on the keto diet, using shrimp as an extremely low-carb, high-protein main ingredient is a great idea! Because shrimp is so low in carbs (at only 1g per 3-ounce serving), you can enjoy it in many different variations, guilt-free. Plus, it tastes amazing when paired with high-fat, keto-friendly ingredients such as butter, cream, and olive oil!

Below, we’ll show you some mouthwatering, totally-succulent options for shrimp recipes (including keto shrimp alfredo and keto shrimp stir-fry), that will make you super-excited to get your apron on! These fresh and flavorful recipes are so delicious (and decadent), your non-low-carb eating friends will be shocked that they fit into your dietary regimen!

The best part is, while you indulge in all the rich ingredients in the following recipes, you’re adding to your daily healthy fat content – which is an important aspect of reaching ketosis while on the keto diet. And all of the recipes, below, feature fresh, whole food ingredients instead of processed – helping you get the additional fiber, vitamins and minerals you need, while helping you avoid toxins and impurities from highly-processed foods.

Before we give you the recipes, here are a few suggestions when it comes to the shrimp... This is a seafood that’s highly-accessible year-round no matter where you live, but no matter where you buy it, it’s best to get it frozen. This is because the majority of shrimp sold at grocery stores and fish markets are delivered in their frozen state – so if you see it in display at the fish counter, it’s been thawed. Since you don’t know how long it’s been thawed, it’s best if you do that part yourself at home!

In addition, in line with the 310 Nutrition philosophy to eat as clean and healthy as possible, we suggest you choose raw, wild shrimp as often as your budget allows.

Without further ado, here are the amazing keto shrimp recipes you’ve been waiting for…
