Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry

My darling daughter and I just love shrimp. I don’t think we have met a shrimp that we didn’t love yet. It could be the reason I have so many delectable shrimp recipes on my site.

Have you tried any of my other shrimp recipes? Cajun Shrimp Pasta, Shrimp Scampi, Air Fryer Popcorn Shrimp, and this Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry recipe are just a few of our favorites.
