Cooking Directions
Prepare the Shrimp
In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque.

Remove the shrimp from the boiling water and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Drain and Serve
Drain the shrimp and arrange them on a serving platter. Serve with cocktail sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
