Ingredients:

You’ll need the following to make about 4 servings of Country Fried Chicken:

  • Boneless chicken breasts (4): Pound evenly so they cook through and stay tender.
  • Buttermilk (2 cups): Use to marinate your chicken for juicy, flavorful results.
  • All-purpose flour (2 cups): Forms the crispy coating that gives your chicken that golden crunch.
  • Salt (1 teaspoon): Brings out the savory flavor in every bite.
  • Black pepper (1 teaspoon): Adds a bit of heat and depth.
  • Paprika (1 teaspoon): Adds smoky flavor and a rich color
  • Garlic powder (½ teaspoon): Infuses your coating with aromatic flavor.

How to Make Texas Roadhouse Grilled Shrimp

You can enjoy the juicy, smoky flavor of Texas Roadhouse–style grilled shrimp right at home. This quick and easy recipe gives you that same buttery, garlicky taste that pairs perfectly with steak, chicken, or fresh veggies.

  • Marinate the shrimp: In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Let them marinate for 15–20 minutes.
  • Preheat your grill: Heat your grill or grill pan to medium-high. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
