Shrimp Marinade Ingredients

The best part about this recipe is that it only requires a blend of a few sauces that you probably already have on hand! All individual measurements are found in the recipe card below.

Olive Oil: Pulls fat-soluble ingredients together and really helps to infuse your shrimp with flavor. You can also substitute olive oil for melted butter.
Red Wine Vinegar: Adds a tangy flavor with a hint of sweetness.
Garlic: 3 cloves, minced.
Italian Seasoning: Adds a zesty flavor and texture. You can use packaged Italian seasoning, but I recommend using my homemade seasoning for extra fresh flavor.
Lemon Juice: You can use bottled or fresh lemon juice.
Soy Sauce: Makes your marinade more savory. Also adds a beautiful, caramelized color to your shrimp when cooked.
Dijon Mustard: Adds a sharp, tangy flavor to the marinade.
Worcestershire Sauce: Adds a blend of sour, sweet, and slightly spicy flavors to your marinade.

Making Your Marinade

With only one step, this is the easiest way to add insanely delicious flavor to shrimp. Using a medium-sized bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, lemon juice, soy sauce, Dijon Mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Add the shrimp and let marinate for at least one hour or overnight.

Shrimp Marinade Pro Tips

As the building block of grilling, marinating is important! Use these tips and tricks to make sure your meat and seafood turns out perfectly!

Not Marinating Too Long: If using a lot of citrus in your marinade, make sure not to let your shrimp sit in it too long. The acid in the marinade can actually start to eat through your shrimp and make it mushy. 30 minutes to an hour is plenty of time for a citrus-based marinade to work.
Pat Shrimp Dry: Before marinating shrimp, make sure to pat it dry. This helps the marinade stick better.
Fresh or Frozen: You can use either fresh or frozen shrimp when marinating, but fresh shrimp absorbs flavor better. Let frozen shrimp thaw in the marinade for 30 minutes before cooking.
Always Marinate in Fridge: Marinating at room temperature can cause harmful bacteria to grow.
Using Marinade as Glaze: You can save some of your marinade to top your shrimp with as a glaze after cooking. Make sure you set aside extra marinade before adding raw shrimp to avoid foodborne illnesses.
Using Other Meats: This marinade also tastes great when cooked with chicken, steak, and fish. It is so versatile and delicious.
Serve With: This shrimp tastes great paired up with so many different things. You can put it on a bed of pasta, serve it alongside delicious garlic mashed potatoes, or even stick it on a skewer with vegetables for a gorgeous summer treat!

Storing Leftover Shrimp Marinade

In the Refrigerator: Homemade marinade will last up to 2 weeks in the fridge in an airtight container. Make sure you store leftover marinade that hasn’t had any raw meat in it yet.
In the Freezer: Marinade can be stored in ziplock bags and kept for 3-6 months.

Ice cream is a given during the hot summer months and you can do so many delicious recipes with it. Try these fan favorites like this Frosted Lemonade, Keto, and Brownie Batter Ice Cream!

Homemade Ice Cream In a Bag

You scream, I scream, We all scream for Ice Cream! This is the perfect family fun, kid friendly way to satisfy those ice cream cravings. The bonus part of this recipe is everyone gets their own bag, the same amount of ice cream and the they can customize it to their liking. You will have just won mother, neighbor, aunt or whatever of the year with this ice cream in a bag recipe. It is hands on and so much fun. Plus ice cream in a bag tastes amazing!

Seriously, the kids ask for ice cream like every night. I love getting them involved and they love making it. Letting them share a bag or make their own takes all the fighting out of what kind to have as well. Making your own homemade ice cream gives you control over the ingredients and what you want in your ice cream bag. And you can make this when you need ice cream in a pinch for desserts like Skillet Brownies, White Chocolate Blondes, and Pizookies!

Easy Ice Cream in a Bag Ingredients

Besides the bags, this recipe uses the same kind of ingredients you would normally use for ice cream.

Gallon-sized ziplock bags: You may not want to buy the generic and go for the name brand. You do not want these to leak or not seal properly.
Heavy cream half and half or whole milk: The best dairy product for homemade ice cream will be the ones with the most fat, so shoot for heavy cream or half and half.
Sugar: White sugar will sweeten the dairy so it tastes luscious.
Vanilla: This will add the flavor and is a base flavor, you can customize it or change it.
Ice: You will need enough ice to fill the gallon bag up halfway. You can probably just use ice from your own freezer.
Rock salt: Look for rock or ice cream salt where you find table salt at your local store.

Let’s Make Ice Cream in a Bag!

The more it is shaken and moved around the faster it’ll freeze.

First Bag: In a gallon-sized ziplock bag add the ice and salt.
Second Bag: In another gallon-sized bag add the heavy cream.
Sugar: Add in the sugar and shake the bag.
Flavor: Add in the vanilla and shake.
Zip it: Seal the bag completely so that the salt will not get into the bag and place it in the bag with the ice.
Make it: Shake the bag for about 5 minutes or until frozen.

Why Ice Cream in a Bag Works

This fun ice cream recipe is also a science lesson in disguise.

The Science behind the goodness: The key ingredient to making ice cream is the salt. The salt lowers the temperature at which ice melts. Just like how many cities use salt to melt ice on roads or sidewalks faster. As the ice melts it needs the absorb heat to continue to melt. The ice will draw the heat from the ice cream ingredients, allowing the ice cream mixture to absorb the cold from the ice, freezing it.
Shaking: Even shaking the bag helps in this science experiment. Shaking allows the transfer of heat to happen and also creates air in the ice cream mixture making it nice and creamy!

The Best Ice Cream in a Bag Tips and Tricks

Make summertime that much more fun and keep the ingredients on hand for endless fun.

Bags: You can use a smaller quart bag for the ice cream mixture if you find that easier to have a smaller bag. Make sure you get as much air out as possible. And make sure it is sealed properly. I highly recommend using the name-brand bags for this activity as I have found they are a bit more durable and reliable. You can double bag it if you desire too. It isn’t as much fun when the bag breaks.
It will get cold: Holding bags of ice will get cold for little fingers. Play hot potato and pass the bag around to help relieve the cold and to add an extra element of fun. Kids can also wear oven mittens or winter gloves to keep their fingers warm.
Time: The amount of time it takes to get the right consistency you desire will vary. It can freeze as fast as 5 minutes or take up to 15. The more you shake it the faster it will freeze. Eat straight from the bag, place in a bowl, or put into a container and place the freezer to harden a bit more.
Salt: While rock salt is ideal for keeping the salt from getting into your ice cream, any salt will do. This has been made successfully with table salt even.
Variations: Make this dairy-free by using full-fat coconut milk or coconut cream.
Flavors: Try different flavors by using different extracts such as almond, maple, or mint. Make chocolate ice cream by stirring in chocolate syrup.
Mix-ins: Once the ice cream is done, stir in your favorite mix-ins. Try crushed cookies, mini M&M’s, any chopped candy bar, peanut butter, sprinkles, nuts, or fruit.
