This appetizer is perfect for entertaining whether it's Thanksgiving, Christmas or a summertime pool party! Roast shrimp with lemons and serve with a simple stir-together cocktail sauce.
¾ cup ketchup (I use Sir Kensington's Classic Ketchup)
3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons lemon juice (1/2 a juicy lemon)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Thaw shrimp. I like to place them in a large bowl in the sink and fill it with cold water. After about 15-30 minutes, they're thawed. I then drain them and dry thoroughly with kitchen towels.
Preheat oven to 400 F. Toss "Shrimp" ingredients on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 8-10 minutes until shrimp are pink and just cooked through. Discard roasted lemon slices.
Meanwhile, combine all "Cocktail Sauce" ingredients in a medium bowl and stir to combine.
Pour cocktail sauce into a serving dish, and present roasted shrimp alongside. Garnish with fresh lemon slices.
