Shrimp Cocktail With Homemade Sauce Recipes

SHRIMP COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Thaw the shrimp in the refrigerator overnight and rinse with cold water, then set aside. Or, quick thaw the shrimp by placing them in a bowl then rinsing with cold water for 15-20 minutes, and drain. Chill until ready to serve.
• In a small bowl, mix the chili sauce with 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, the horseradish, worcestershire sauce and ground mustard. Slice the rest of the lemon into wedges.
• Top a platter with crushed ice cubes and top with the shrimp and lemon wedges. Serve cold with the cocktail sauce on the side.

SHRIMP COCKTAIL WITH HOMEMADE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the shrimp: In a wide, shallow pan, combine the lemon, peppercorns, bay leaves, wine, and salt. Bring the poaching liquid to a gentle simmer over low heat. Add the shrimp and poach them for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they turn pink. Drain the shrimp and let them cool until they're cool enough to handle.
• Peel the shrimp, leaving the tails on.
• Look for the dark "vein" that runs the length of the shrimp's back. In order to remove it without destroying the shrimp, I recommend laying the shrimp on its side and carefully running a sharp paring knife down its back to make a shallow cut. Use the tip of the knife to extract the exposed vein.
• Refrigerate the shrimp until you're about to serve them.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the ketchup, pepper, lemon juice, and horseradish to make the cocktail sauce. Taste the sauce and season with more horseradish if you want to add extra kick. Refrigerate.
• Serve both the shrimp and cocktail sauce very cold.

SHRIMP COCKTAIL RECIPE WITH THE BEST SAUCE

Steps:

• Thaw shrimp according to package instructions, then rinse under cold water and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Place shrimp on a large rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil and sprinkle on 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir to combine then arrange shrimp in a single layer.
• Bake at 450˚F for 8-10 min or until shrimp turn pink and are just cooked through.* As soon as they come out of the oven, test a shrimp for doneness then transfer all shrimp to a serving platter. If they stay on the hot baking sheet, they can get overcooked.
• Combine all of the Cocktail Sauce ingredients, adding horseradish and hot sauce to taste (Add more if you love cocktail sauce with a spicy kick and less if you prefer a mild sauce). Cover and refrigerate sauce and shrimp for at least an hour or overnight. Serve chilled.
