Notes

  • Choose asparagus that is your preferred thickness. If they are very thick they may need an additional few minutes of cooking time. 
  • Use raw shrimp; pre-cooked shrimp becomes rubbery when cooked twice. You can also buy the shrimp already peeled and deveined for a faster dinner.
  • Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
  • Shrimp cooks fairly quickly and becomes rubbery when overdone.
  • The texture of shrimp is always best when served fresh. But if you have leftovers you can store them in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave or in the oven.
