While cooking with Gorton’s is always easy, using an air fryer is a huge time saver! I simply place Gorton’s Butterfly Shrimp on air fryer rack and air fry at 425°F for six minutes. Not only is shrimp a good source of protein, but it is also rich in vitamins and minerals. With a fresh taste and a quick cook time, Gorton’s Butterfly Shrimp is an easy way to incorporate more seafood into your diet. Plus, it is non-GMO and immunity boosting. As a freezer staple, Gorton’s Butterfly Shrimp is preserved for freshness whenever you need them and customizable to your cooking needs.
Summer menu’s are in full effect at my home. While many may consider salads as entrées, I like to create an entire meal around them. One of my favorite salads is the Alba Salad. The recipe is inspired by a featured menu item at one of my favorite Buenos Aires restaurants. While the original salad does not include a protein, I have added Gorton’s Butterfly Shrimp to elevate the salad. Now that I have shared my inspiration behind the Alba Salad with Air Fryer Butterfly Shrimp, let’s get to recipe!
