Shrimp and Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large pot, bring the water, lemon slices, and salt to a boil. Add the jumbo shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink and opaque. Drain the shrimp and transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ketchup, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Arrange the chilled shrimp on a platter and serve with the robust tomato horseradish sauce on the side for dipping.
