Baked Shrimp Cocktail "Louis"


How to Make Baked Shrimp Cocktail "Louis"
Time: 30 min.
Complexity: easily
Servings: 8 - 10


Bake shrimp in the oven once, and you'll never want to go back to boiled shrimp. Baking intensifies their flavor and makes them even more appetizing. They're a wonderful appetizer served with a dipping sauce. Beforehand, remove the shells and devein the shrimp, leaving only the tails for easy handling. The easiest way to do this is to cut the shrimp down the back with kitchen scissors. For the sauce, combine mayonnaise with chili sauce, lemon zest, horseradish, Sriracha hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. The flavor is incredibly vibrant. Serve the shrimp cocktail while you prepare the main course, and your guests will be delighted.
