1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a large pot, bring the water to a boil. Add half of the lemon (squeeze the juice into the water, then add the lemon halves).
2
Cook the Shrimp
Once the water is boiling, add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Do not overcook.
3
Cool the Shrimp
Remove the shrimp from the pot and immediately transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
4
Serve
Drain the shrimp and serve chilled with cocktail sauce and the remaining lemon halves for garnish.
