Yield Makes about 50 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 13

For shrimp
1 pound medium shrimp in shell, peeled and deveined
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced celery (3 to 4 ribs)
1 cup thinly sliced scallions (about 6)
For sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup vodka (preferably Absolut Peppar)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons bottled horseradish (not drained), or to taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Tabasco
Equipment: Chinese soupspoons
Garnish: diced avocado (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare shrimp:
  • Bring a large saucepan of salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 2 quarts water) to a boil. Add shrimp, then remove from heat and let stand in water until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Cut shrimp into thirds and transfer to a large bowl with celery and scallions.
  • Make sauce:
  • Whisk together all sauce ingredients, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste.
  • Just before serving, stir sauce into shrimp mixture. Spoon 2 shrimp pieces with vegetables and sauce into each soupspoon and arrange spoons on a platter.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Shrimp: Plump and succulent shrimp are essential for the best-tasting shooters. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a vibrant color.
  • Choose Your Bloody Mary Mix Wisely: Not all Bloody Mary mixes are created equal. Opt for a mix that is flavorful and has a good balance of sweet, sour, and savory notes.
  • Customize the Spice Level: Bloody Mary shrimp shooters can be made as mild or spicy as you like. Adjust the amount of horseradish, hot sauce, and/or cayenne pepper to suit your taste.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Overcooked shrimp are tough and chewy. Cook the shrimp just until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Chill the Shooters Before Serving: Bloody Mary shrimp shooters are best served chilled. Place the shooters in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Bloody Mary shrimp shooters are a delicious and festive appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With their zesty and flavorful Bloody Mary sauce and succulent shrimp, these shooters are sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy appetizer, give this recipe a try!
