Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large pot, bring water and salt to a boil. Add the jumbo shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook.

  2. 2

    Chill the Shrimp

    Remove the shrimp from the pot and transfer them to an ice bath (a bowl of ice water) to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Drain the shrimp and arrange them on a platter. Serve with cocktail sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
