Categories     Easy

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1.15 lbs raw shrimp shell-on (equals about 1 lb after it's cooked)
8 cups filtered water
1 Tbsp garlic salt (I use Lawry's brand)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1-2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Depending on how you are serving your shrimp, you can leave the shells on or off. I peel and devein first and keep the shells for the shrimp boil.
  • Place the shells from the shrimp in a large sauce pan along with 1 Tbsp garlic salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and bay leaf. Add 8 cups water and bring to a boil over med/high heat.
  • Once water boils, add the peeled and deveined shrimp and simmer until pink, about 2-3 minutes depending on size of the shrimp. Drain and transfer cooked shrimp to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process and let cool.
