What can I do with shrimp?!

I was gifted with 5 individual quarts of giant frozen shrimp. What dishes would you prepare? The heads are still attached, I don't know if the innards are still there.

My favorite way to eat shrimp is breaded and fried,

Next is a shrimp cocktail.

Shrimp is good in gumbo, etouffee, or even a salad.

I am envious!  Enjoy some for me.

Here is a whole thread with good ways to cook shrimp.

The thread might be about prawns or something else that I can't remember though I am sure shrimp can be substituted:

Shrimp scampi with pasta and extra garlic butter = food of the gods
Curried shrimp with rice = runner-up food of the gods

Lowcounty boil.

If the heads are still there, the innards are still there but it's just a thin line or "vein" that you can pull out with a pinch and a tug and often comes out when you pull off the heads. However you cook them, and there are tons of amazing ways to eat shrimp, save the heads and "peels" for shrimp stock!

A quick brine - no more than 20 minutes - and a quick cook will keep them from getting too tough and bouncy. I like them pan seared with a little lime and chipotle and a little butter.

Although I don't know if this is a worthy use of extra large shrimp, I make shrimp whipped cream with leftover chilled shrimp. Seasoned shrimp and heavy cream blended together until the shrimp is a paste and the cream is whipped. Amazing on toast, risotto, or my favorite, grits.

Enjoy!!

"ebi mayo" is my favorite Japanese recipe for shrimp: https://sudachirecipes.com/ebi-mayo-recipe/

I mix them into Indian curries, eat on rice with avocado, fry them, make shrimp pasta... that's all I can think of, but I do find them nice for variation.
