Cooking Directions

Uncooked. Keep frozen until ready to cook. Remove shrimp from package before cooking.

Conventional Oven:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. Arrange on metal baking pan.

3. Bake 14-16 minutes total (Fully cook shrimp to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F or higher before serving).

Deep Frying:

1. Using half of the package, place shrimp in basket, separating to prevent from sticking.

2. Fry at 350 degrees F for 2 to 3 minutes (Fully cook shrimp to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F or higher before serving).

Note: The correct oil temperature is critical to ensure proper browning and thorough cooking. Always allow oil to reheat before frying additional shrimp. Microwaving is not recommended.

Air Fryer:

1. Arrange half a package of shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

2. Fry shrimp at 400 degrees F for 8-10 minutes (Fully cook shrimp to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F or higher before serving).

3. Shake basket halfway through cook time. Note: If preparing more than half a package, cook to the longest cook time. Keep frozen.

(Air fryers can have varying operation methods and wattages. Please consider your appliance when following these instructions. Oil is not needed).

This was actually my first time trying these shrimp out and it will not be my last. I popped them in in the air fryer for my husband, and I, and we were so impressed with the quality they were crunchy, juicy, and meaty, and they did not feel pre frozen whatsoever. The packaging was super easy to open and then close back up when I was done. These are the perfect snack or quick lunch when you are not in the mood for cooking or just want some quick and easy food. These are super convenient to always have and i will definitely be buying more.

I really enjoy this popcorn shrimp. It has the right balance of flavor and texture that makes me want to reach for another one. The cooking instructions were easy to follow and is a great snack or appetizer.

Cooking these in my air fryer left us with perfectly nice crunchy popcorn shrimp 🍤. The first batch was a little overdone but after adjusting the time and temping to make sure they were heated they came out great. I have no complaints about the package because we cooked them all and the box didn't waste space. I just felt like there was a little bit too much garlic flavor personally but that's my preference. Thank you Influenster for the free product for review.

Gorton’s Crunchy Breaded Popcorn Shrimp delivers on convenience and taste with a satisfying crunch and mild, lightly seasoned flavor. The shrimp are bite-sized, making them great for snacking or adding to meals. They crisp up nicely in the oven or air fryer, though some may find the breading a bit thick compared to the shrimp inside. The flavor is tasty but not overly bold, appealing to a broad range of palates. Overall, it’s a solid frozen seafood option that balances convenience, crunch, and flavor, earning a well-deserved 4 stars.

I recently tried Gorton's Crunchy Breaded Popcorn Shrimp, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and flavor. The shrimp were perfectly bite-sized, making them a convenient snack or addition to a meal. The breading was satisfyingly crispy and had a well-balanced, lightly seasoned flavor that didn’t overpower the shrimp. Each piece was golden-brown and crunchy, adding great texture. One of the best parts is how quick and easy it is to prepare—straight from the freezer to the oven in minutes. The shrimp were tender, and you could tell they were real shrimp, not fillers. They paired perfectly with a homemade dipping sauce, like spicy mayo or a classic cocktail sauce.

Crunchy and flavorful. Easy to cook. I love popcorn shrimp and this didn’t disappoint. Sometimes there’s too much breading on these but this was good.

Easy lunch when working from home. I popped about 10 pieces in the air fryer for 10 mins while I chopped up some veggies and made a tasty popcorn shrimp salad for lunch. Healthy, easy and cheap. It ended up costing me $10 total for all the ingredients and it's enough for 2 or 3 salad lunches. Plus doesn't take longer than 10 mins to prepare, while the shrimp is in the air fryer/oven u can wash and prepare the veggies for a nice little salad.

“Not great”

These were very easy to cook. They had a nice crunch. But the crunch is all it had. The batter overpowered the shrimp so really all you could taste was the crunchy coating. I wouldn’t buy these again.
