Keto Shrimp Recipes Ready in 15 Minutes
Shrimp is the fastest protein on keto — from frozen to plate in under 15 minutes. At zero carbs and 20g protein per serving, it’s one of the leanest, most versatile proteins you can cook with.
I keep a bag of frozen shrimp in my freezer at all times for quick weeknight dinners. The trick is not overcooking — pull them the second they curl into a C shape. A tight curl means they’re overdone and rubbery.
Here are my best keto shrimp recipes — air fried, sauteed, and wrapped in bacon.

Shrimp cooks incredibly fast — 2 to 3 minutes per side is all you need. The biggest mistake is overcooking. I pull them the second they curl into a C shape. If they're a tight O, they're overdone. For breaded shrimp, my almond flour and parmesan coating gives a real crunch without the carbs.
