RESTAURANT STYLE PEEL AND EAT SHRIMP



Restaurant Style Peel and Eat Shrimp image

When it comes to preparing legendary restaurant-style peel and eat shrimp you won't find a better recipe than mine. I also share my cocktail sauce recipe.

Provided by Chef Dennis Littley

Categories     Appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb 21-25 count (per pound) shrimp (shell on)
12 ounces beer (your favorite brand)
2 tbsp old bay seasoning (for cooking )
1 tbsp pickling spice (for cooking)
1 lemon (cut in half)
tbsp old bay seasoning (for seasoning cooked shrimp)
lemon slices (garnish)
½ cup ketchup
½ cup Heinz chili sauce
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
3-4 tsp prepared horseradish more or less depending upon how spicy you like cocktail sauce
2 tsp lemon juice

Steps:

  • Use a 3- 4 quart saucepan to cook the shrimp. Fill the pan halfway with water then add the beer, Old Bay, pickling spice and the lemon halves with the juice squeezed into the water.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then add the shrimp.
  • Cook the shrimp for 2-4 minutes depending upon their size. I cooked my shrimp for 3 minutes and they were perfectly done.If the pan is overcrowded it could take longer. I usually let the water come back to a boil and let the shrimp cook for 1-2 minutes longer. A cooked shrimp should feel firm, not soft.
  • When the shrimp have finished cooking, drain them into a colander and discard the lemon.If you enjoy eating peel and eat shrimp hot you can serve them before they cool. Peel and eat shrimp can also be served cool which will allow you to prepare them ahead of time.
  • Serve with lemon slices and cocktail sauce
  • Mix the ketchup, chili sauce, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.Depending upon how spicy you like cocktail sauce adjust the amount of horseradish. Remember you can always add more.
  • Chill until needed.

SHRIMP BOIL (PEEL AND EAT SHRIMP)



Shrimp Boil (Peel and Eat Shrimp) image

The best Peel and Eat Shrimp I've ever had! We served 10 plus lbs at our Halloween party this year and they were easy for me to cook while entertaining! They are great hot or cold depending on how you prefer them. The size of the shrimp isn't too important, just that they are still in the shell. It is very important for the flavor. I was lucky to find a store where I live that sells shell on but deveined shrimp! Cooking time depends on the size of the shrimp. I use medium size shrimp
