Garlic Shrimp Caesar Salad Recipe [Paleo, Keto]

Instead of a chicken Caesar salad, why not add more variety into your diet and try your salad with shrimp instead.

They’re nutritious and quick to cook – with just 10 minutes of roasting in the oven, they’ll be cooked and ready to eat! If you have a grill, then try grilling them on skewers or on a piece of foil.

This recipe only takes 25 minutes from start to finish, but if you have extra time, try marinating the shrimp in the garlic lemon mixture for longer before cooking the shrimp.
