Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the juice of 1 lemon to the boiling water.

2

Cook the Shrimp

Once the water is boiling, add the jumbo shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them.

3

Ice Bath

Remove the shrimp from the pot using a slotted spoon and immediately transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them chill for about 5 minutes.

4

Prepare Cocktail Sauce

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of ketchup, 1 tablespoon of prepared horseradish, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon of hot sauce, and 0.5 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Mix well until smooth.

5

Serve

Once the shrimp have cooled, drain them from the ice water and pat dry with paper towels. Arrange the shrimp on a serving platter and serve with the cocktail sauce on the side.
