SOUTHERN PICKLED SHRIMP



Southern Pickled Shrimp image

Pickled shrimp are not your standard, classic pickle: it's more of a preservation technique, using oil, acid in the form of lemon juice, and tons of flavor from onion, bay leaf, allspice, and celery seed. Everything comes together in this beautiful thing that you can pile on top of crusty bread, chop into salsa, or serve with toothpicks, just like grandma used to.

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined, 16/20 count per pound
1 medium Vidalia onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
12 dry bay leaves, or 6 fresh bay leaves
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 cup olive oil
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon crushed chili flakes

Quick and easy from an old issue of Real Simple magazine. I like to make a batch of this and keep it on hand for salads, tacos, whatever! Do not leave the shrimp in the juice/marinade for more than a day as they will become very tough. Make sure to pour off the juice if not eaten within 24 hours!
