Shrimp Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the halved lemon and Cajun seasoning to the water.

2

Add the shrimp to the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp and place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.

3

Make the Cocktail Sauce

In a mixing bowl, combine ketchup, honey, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.

4

Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more hot sauce for heat or honey for sweetness if desired.

5

Serve

Drain the shrimp from the ice water and serve chilled with the Cajun-honey cocktail sauce on the side.
