    The most simplest I use is:

    Boil a pot of water with some Zatarains Crab Boil or some Old Bay. Put the shrimp in until they turn pink (just a few mins). There you have it.

    I usually cook mine outside on a Coleman stove or on my grills side burner. This keeps the house from smelling like a shrimp boil; for 3 days! lol

    I normally saute mine in oil with garlic, lemon and old bay. Another option is to skewer and grill them. But with this I tend to baste with something so they won't be dry.

    My favorite is with pasta. I saute shrimp with garlic, a green onion minced small, and seasoning. I add chicken broth and lemon juice. Reduce. If I have calories, I add a small amount of cream and Parmesan. Serve with pasta.

    I've wanted to try shrimp patties but I haven't.

    The other day, I tried zataran's shrimp creole. It was very good and easy. Served with rice. Sodium was high but overall the calories were low.

    Good luck.

    My favorite is just shrimp with avocado and a bit of mayo. Or shrimp fried rice.

    I guess it depends if they are precooked or not though.

    I love making tacos or fajitas with them. Or simply putting them on a salad. I season them with Cajun or old bay seasoning and sometimes creole.
