Benefits:
Shrimp and crab are packed with selenium and zinc to promote skin renewal and elasticity. Omega-3s in seafood reduce inflammation and support a healthy lipid barrier. Lemon juice brightens the skin with vitamin C, while fresh herbs like parsley and dill detox and nourish from the inside out.

Skin Concern: Loss of firmness, dullness, irritated or aging skin

Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes | Serves: 2

Ingredients:
For the Shrimp:

• 6 large jumbo shrimp, peeled and butterflied (tails on)

• 1 tsp olive oil

• Pinch of sea salt and pepper

For the Seafood Stuffing:

• 1/4 cup lump crab meat (or finely chopped scallops or white fish)

• 1/4 cup almond flour or crushed gluten-free crackers

• 1 tbsp avocado mayo or Greek yogurt

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

• 1 garlic clove, minced

• 1 tbsp finely chopped red bell pepper

• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

• 1/2 tsp chopped fresh dill or thyme

• 1 tsp lemon juice

• Sea salt and black pepper to taste

• Optional: pinch of paprika or cayenne for warmth

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly oil a small baking dish.
• To make the stuffing, mix all ingredients in a bowl until just combined.
• Arrange butterflied shrimp in the baking dish, cut side up. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of the seafood stuffing onto each shrimp, pressing gently to mound it.
• Drizzle or brush the shrimp with olive oil. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until shrimp are pink and opaque and stuffing is golden.
• Serve with a squeeze of lemon and optional garnish of microgreens or extra herbs.

Shopping Tips:

• Shrimp: Choose wild-caught jumbo shrimp—look for fresh or frozen with no added preservatives.

• Crab: Real lump crab meat (not imitation) offers more nutrients and better texture.

• Herbs: Fresh parsley and dill offer natural detoxifying and anti-inflammatory benefits—skip dried here.

Cooking Tips:

• Make the stuffing ahead and refrigerate for up to 1 day.

• Add a touch of lemon zest to the stuffing for extra brightness.

• Serve with sautéed spinach or roasted asparagus for a complete, glow-boosting meal.
