About Pepper shrimp

Pepper Shrimp is a flavorful dish rooted in Caribbean cuisine, celebrated for its bold seasoning and vibrant profile. Typically, it features succulent shrimp tossed in a blend of spices like black pepper, garlic, ginger, thyme, and sometimes Scotch bonnet peppers for added heat. Fresh vegetables such as onions, bell peppers, and scallions often enhance the dish, complementing the shrimp's natural sweetness. Rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, shrimp supports heart and brain health while being low in calories. However, depending on preparation, high sodium in seasoning or excessive oils can affect its overall nutritional value. Pairing Pepper Shrimp with steamed vegetables or whole grains can create a balanced meal, making it a tasty yet mindful choice for those craving a taste of the islands.
