1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the large shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Remove from heat, drain, and immediately place the shrimp in ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain again and set aside.
2
Make the Cocktail Sauce
In a bowl, combine the cocktail sauce with the lemon juice. Mix well to incorporate the flavors.
3
Prepare the Vegetables
Dice the avocado and cucumber into small, even pieces. Place them in a separate bowl and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
4
Assemble the Shooter
In each shot glass, layer the diced avocado at the bottom, followed by a layer of diced cucumber. Place one cooked shrimp on top of the vegetables. Finally, drizzle the prepared cocktail sauce over the shrimp until they are generously coated.
5
Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley on top of each shooter for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy your Shrimp Cocktail Shooters!
