Having a stash of shrimp in the freezer is one of life's best dinner cheat codes. The delicate protein thaws quickly and cooks up even faster. It's versatile too; it can be tossed with pasta or grits, sautéed with rice, or used as a salad topper. You don't even have to devein them if you buy them cleaned from the seafood counter or frozen aisle, although a pair of kitchen shears can make quick work of it, if need be.

We've collected over two dozen recipes starring shrimp, some infused with the flavors of the Lowcountry, others Cajun-spiced, but all of them extremely delicious.

Pascal's Manale in New Orleans popularized this saucy shrimp dish, but you can bring the Crescent City home to you with our rendition. Despite barbecue in the name, the dish never touches a grill. Instead, it's a tribute to the shrimp's reddish-brown tint, the result of many spices added to the buttery sauce.

Soups, stews, and chowders aren't typically a weeknight meal when time is tight, as so often they have to simmer for quite some time to develop real flavor. Not this chowder. Fresh corn, heavy cream, and savory chives create plenty of flavor in very little time.

Not everyone loves pineapple in savory dishes, but for those who do (we're looking at those pineapple pizza folks), this is for you. The fruit add acidic, freshness and a touch of sweetness to the spiced shrimp in these tacos.
