About Buttered shrimp
Buttered Shrimp is a flavorful seafood dish often attributed to Filipino cuisine, though variations are enjoyed worldwide. This dish features plump shrimp sautéed in rich butter, garlic, and spices, with some recipes incorporating soy sauce, lemon juice, or chili for added depth. The main health aspects of Buttered Shrimp come from the shrimp itself, which is a high-quality source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients like selenium and vitamin B12 that support heart and brain health. However, the dish's buttery base can contribute to high saturated fat and calorie content, making portion control essential. While the garlic adds antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, the addition of sauces or sugar in some recipes may increase sodium or sugar levels. Buttered Shrimp is a savory indulgence best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced meal.
