Add them last minute to a boil of cooked linguini with butter and lemons and broccoli (or some other green vegetable), and stir real quick, so they are warmed through!.
Or make a quick Wor Wonton soup, chicken stock, sliced grilled pork, cabbage and bean sprouts, and add the shrimp the latest!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

make a pasta with a cream sauce!. personally I would use a little black pepper, some tony's, and a pinch of lemon zest as well!.

Just before your ready to take it off the stove add the shrimp for 2 min!. (no more) this is just enough time to absorb some flavor, heat up, and not over cook!.

good luckWww@FoodAQ@Com

Cook some rice and set aside!. Heat some of your favorite jar pasta sauce and stir in some shrimps during the last 3 minutes!.

Mound the rice onto a plate, making a hole in the center (like you'd do with mashed potatoes) and pour the sauce & shrimps into the center!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Add them to anything hot, just don't add them until the last 30 seconds to 60 seconds and they will be great!.

Or come over here with them! I looooooooooove shrimp cocktail and have been accused of eating all of it whenever its at a party!. Ooops!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you could peel them, add some cooked oriental vegetables and some mushrooms and some imitation lobster/crab!.!.!.

that would be a seafood delight made in asian restaurants where i am!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Since they are already cooked, toss them in for just a minute at the end of cooking in your fave recipe!.
A light pasta w/sauce and the shrimp would be good!.
