To a large saute pan, with a lid, over medium-high heat, add the water and shrimp and cover until cooked, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the shrimp with tongs to a medium bowl and let cool. Add the seafood seasoning and toss well to coat the shrimp.

Put each ramekin in a slightly larger bowl and divide the shrimp evenly to the inside of the bowls before serving.
