Best shrimp cocktail recipe.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I prepared 6 pounds of shrimp cocktail using this recipe for a Super Bowl party and everyone eating them raved about how good... they were & didn't know shrimp could be roasted. They really loved these! (Lucky for me, my BJ's Wholesale Club had Berkley & Jensen Colossal PEELED, tail-on shrimp so I didn't have to peel 6 pounds of shrimp that morning!) The cocktail sauce recipe is right on. Very lively without being too hot for everyone to enjoy it. Like others have said, I will never boil shrimp again. Thank you, Ina! Read more

Surprisingly Amazing!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I grew up in the South around Coastal towns and shrimp was a staple item on our diet. My mother recently called to share... this recipe with me and I finally tried it tonight. I was blown away with the ease and taste of this very simple recipe. I will NO longer go thru the whole process of boiling shrimp. The olive oil, salt and pepper make for a much more flavorful shrimp than the boiled version, in my opinion. Give it a try!Read more
