About Steam shrimp

Steam shrimp is a highly nutritious dish often featured in seafood cuisine, particularly in Asian and Mediterranean diets. Made by gently steaming fresh shrimp, this preparation method preserves the natural flavors and nutritional value without adding extra fats or oils. Shrimp is a rich source of lean protein and provides essential nutrients such as selenium, vitamin B12, and phosphorus. It is also low in calories and carbohydrates, making it a great choice for weight-conscious individuals. Additionally, shrimp contains astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant known for promoting heart and skin health. Despite its many benefits, shrimp is relatively high in cholesterol, so moderation is advised for those managing heart health or cholesterol levels. Steam shrimp is versatile and can be enjoyed plain or paired with healthy sides like steamed vegetables or brown rice for a balanced meal.
