Cooking Tips:
The rock shrimp’s small size suits it for almost any recipe that doesn’t require whole shrimp for presentation. P&D meats or pieces are ideal for stir-fries and other quick recipes, like pasta dishes and pizza. If using shell-on rock shrimp, split and broil 4 inches from the heat source for 2 minutes or until meat is opaque in the shell. Or drop into salted, boiling water, stir and cook for 35 seconds. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water.
