Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

32 raw tail-on shrimp (21 to 25 count size)
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
2 cups ice
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup prepared chili sauce
4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon sugar
3 grinds fresh black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 dash Old Bay Seasoning

Steps:

  • Place cleaned shrimp into a bowl with brine and refrigerate mixture for 20 to 25 minutes. While shrimp are brining, place tomatoes, chili sauce, horseradish, sugar, pepper, and salt in food processor and blend until smooth. Refrigerate cocktail sauce until ready to serve.
  • Place a baking sheet or broiler pan under oven broiler and preheat for 5 minutes. Rinse the shrimp under cold water and dry on paper towels. In a large bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil and sprinkle with Old Bay seasoning, if desired.
  • Place shrimp onto a sizzling sheet pan and return to broiler immediately. After 2 minutes, turn the shrimp with a pair of tongs. Return the shrimp to broiler for 1 minute. Transfer to a cold cookie sheet. Refrigerate immediately.
