Okay, let’s be real for one caffeinated minute. Some people have shellfish allergies, and for them, shrimp is basically a tiny, delicious grenade. If your throat starts tingling or your face turns into a balloon animal, stop eating immediately. You’re not the target audience for this article—go see a doctor, you brave soul.
Also, watch the butter. If you drench your grilled shrimp in a gallon of melted butter, you’re negating the whole “healthy” part. Butter is like putting a fur coat on a Olympic sprinter—unnecessary and heavy. Use a squeeze of lemon or a dash of chili flakes. Your arteries will send you a thank-you note.
