Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Rinse the EZ-peel shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Shrimp

    In a bowl, toss the shrimp with Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Set up the Steamer

    Fill a pot with about 1 inch of water and bring it to a boil. If using a steamer basket, place it in the pot.

    Remove the shrimp from the steamer and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
