GARLIC & HERB ROASTED SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Melt the butter over low heat in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook over low heat for one minute. Off the heat, zest one of the lemons directly into the butter mixture.
- Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp snugly in one layer in a large (12-inch) round ovenproof sauté pan (or 10 × 13-inch baking dish) with only the tails overlapping. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Sprinkle with the sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Slice the ends off the zested lemon, cut five (1/4-inch-thick) slices, and tuck them among the shrimp. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, just until the shrimp are firm, pink, and cooked through. Cut the remaining lemon in half and squeeze the juice onto the shrimp. Serve hot with the toasted bread for dipping into the garlic butter.

Steps:
- Place shrimp in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in Italian dressing, lemon juice, mint, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, bay leaves, pepper, and salt. Cool sauce to room temperature; mix into shrimp. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours, tossing occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake shrimp until just opaque in center, about 15 minutes, and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a more succulent flavor and texture than frozen shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of garlic, Cajun seasoning, and olive oil helps to infuse them with flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Overcrowding the baking sheet will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly. Make sure to leave some space between each shrimp.
- Bake the shrimp until they are opaque and pink: The shrimp are done cooking when they are opaque and pink. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
- Serve immediately: Garlic Cajun tiger shrimp are best served immediately. They can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or remoulade.
Conclusion:
Garlic Cajun tiger shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The shrimp are marinated in a flavorful mixture of garlic, Cajun seasoning, and olive oil, then baked until they are opaque and pink. They can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or remoulade.
