Garlic Shrimp: An Authentic Recipe Hawaii Style

Garlic shrimp is a buttery, garlicky dish made with large shrimp pan-fried until tender and slightly crispy, often served shell-on. In Hawaii, garlic shrimp is a local favorite made famous by North Shore food trucks, where it’s cooked in a rich butter sauce packed with fresh garlic and sometimes a hint of spice. It’s typically served over rice to soak up every last drop of the buttery goodness.

Yes! The song “Never Forget Where I’m From” by Justin Young perfectly summarizes me and many locals who moved away from the islands for their own reasons. I can NEVER forget where I’m from and I can never forget my memories of growing up and enjoying many aunties’ meals, potlucks, and family gatherings. I hope to help bring a little of home to your plate!
