Teriyaki Shrimp
This recipe is a great gluten-free recipe for shrimp. It only takes 15 minutes to prepare and can serve up to 6 people. To make the sauce, you can use any type of soy sauce. If you don't have any, you can substitute tamari. While soy sauce is gluten-free, low-sodium soy sauce doesn't tend to be. Try tamari instead of soy sauce.
