Shrimp and Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the large shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the heat and transfer the shrimp to an ice bath to chill for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a bowl, combine the slaw mix with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Toss well to evenly coat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Place the chilled shrimp on a serving platter alongside a small bowl of Hacienda cocktail sauce. Add the slaw on the side and serve with lemon wedges for garnish.
