Fish and Seafood Dishes

Bang Bang Shrimp

Crunchy panko-coated shrimp under a creamy, spicy sauce of mayonnaise, sweet chili and sriracha, a popular American appetizer. This version is cooked in the air fryer with a fraction of the usual oil: 8 minutes per batch for a shatteringly crisp coating, then the sauce goes on right before serving.

Creamy Garlic Shrimp Pasta with large shrimp, linguine or spaghetti and garlic — USA recipe

Cereal and Pasta Dishes

Creamy Garlic Shrimp Pasta

Shrimp seared fast in butter, then a garlic cream sauce built in the same pan — white wine, heavy cream, parmesan, lemon. The pasta finishes in the sauce with a splash of its starchy cooking water. Twenty-five minutes. The only thing that matters is not overcooking the shrimp, which takes about 90 seconds per side and no more.

One-Pot Lemon Asparagus Pasta with Shrimp with large shrimp, asparagus and linguine — Mediterranean recipe

🌊MediterraneanAdvanced

Fish and Seafood Dishes

One-Pot Lemon Asparagus Pasta with Shrimp

Pasta cooked directly in broth with lemon, garlic and white wine, so the starch that normally washes down the drain becomes the sauce. Asparagus and shrimp go in at the very end — two minutes, no more — so they stay bright and barely cooked. The whole thing comes together in one pan in half an hour. Works just as well with salmon or scallops if shrimp isn't your thing.

Bánh Xèo (Vietnamese Sizzling Crêpes) with rice flour, turmeric and coconut milk — Vietnam recipe

🇻🇳VietnamAdvanced

Appetizers and Sandwiches

Bánh Xèo (Vietnamese Sizzling Crêpes)

Golden turmeric crêpes fried until shatteringly crisp, filled with pork belly, shrimp, mung bean, and bean sprouts — then folded and eaten wrapped in lettuce with mint and cilantro, dipped in nước chấm. The name means 'sizzling cake': the xèo is the sound the rice flour batter makes the instant it hits the smoking-hot oil. Without that sound, the pan is not hot enough. Getting the crêpe genuinely crisp rather than soft and chewy requires three things: a thin batter, very hot oil, and patience — the crêpe needs 4 to 5 minutes undisturbed before it is ready to fold.

Gỏi Cuốn (Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls) with pork belly, shrimp and rice vermicelli — Vietnam recipe

🇻🇳VietnamAdvanced

Appetizers and Sandwiches

Gỏi Cuốn (Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls)

Translucent rice paper rolled around poached pork belly, boiled shrimp split lengthwise, rice vermicelli, soft lettuce, fresh mint and Thai basil, with garlic chives trailing from one end. The shrimp is placed at the top before rolling so it shows through the paper like a window — pink, curved, vivid. Everything inside is cooked, cooled, and assembled cold. The roll is eaten with a rich peanut-hoisin dipping sauce. Gỏi cuốn translates literally as 'salad rolls' (gỏi = salad, cuốn = to roll), not spring rolls — the name reflects the herb-forward lightness of the filling rather than the season. They are served fresh, at room temperature, within minutes of rolling; the rice paper hardens and the roll becomes difficult to eat if it sits more than 20 to 30 minutes.

Tom Yum Goong (Thai Hot and Sour Shrimp Soup) with shrimp, mushrooms and tomato — Thailand recipe

🇹🇭ThailandMedium

Soups

Tom Yum Goong (Thai Hot and Sour Shrimp Soup)

Tom Yum Goong (ต้มยำกุ้ง) is Thailand's most internationally recognised dish — a clear, fiercely aromatic hot-and-sour soup built on the 'tom yum trinity': lemongrass, galangal, and makrut lime leaves. The broth is simultaneously hot (from Thai bird's eye chillies), sour (fresh lime juice added off the heat), salty (fish sauce), and fragrant (the three herbs). Shrimp heads and shells, simmered first, create a naturally rich stock with a coral-orange color. Two versions exist: the clear broth (nam sai, น้ำใส) — the original — and the creamier version with evaporated milk or coconut milk (nam khon, น้ำข้น). Both are served in the same bowls of jasmine rice across Thailand, from roadside stalls to five-star restaurants.

Moqueca Baiana (Brazilian Fish and Shrimp Stew) with firm white fish, shrimp and coconut milk — Brazil recipe

Fish and Seafood Dishes

Moqueca Baiana (Brazilian Fish and Shrimp Stew)

Moqueca baiana is a Brazilian fish and shrimp stew from Bahia, simmered gently in coconut milk with tomatoes, peppers, onion, and lime, then finished with dendê — red palm oil that turns the sauce a deep orange and adds a nutty, faintly smoky depth found in no other stew. The recipe blends Indigenous, African, and Portuguese cooking, and it's built in layers rather than stirred, cooked on low heat so the fish stays in whole pieces. It's served hot over white rice, straight from the pot it was cooked in.
