Roasted Shrimp Cocktail - Barefoot Contessa Recipe
These roasted shrimp are truly light in flavor and totally moist. They are paired with a fresh-tasting dipping sauce and make an outstanding appetizer.

Ingredients
  • Shrimp:
  • 2 pounds 12-15 count fresh shrimp, peel and devein and leave the tails on
  • 1 Tbsp. good olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper

  • 1/2 cup Heinz chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup Heinz ketchup
  • 3 Tbsp. fresh prepared horseradish
  • 2 tsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp. Tabasco sauce
  • If Ina Garten suggests a specific product brand I know she wants us to enjoy her recipes as if she's preparing them to serve us -- keep that in mind when you prepare her recipes, too!

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  2. Toss the shrimp in the oil to gently coat them.
  3. Spread the shrimp in a single layer and sprinkle on the salt and pepper.
  4. Roast for nine minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven and let cool
  6. Meanwhile, mix all of the sauce ingredients topgether.
  7. Serve as a dipping sauce with the shrimp.
  8. **Note: nope, do not bother to turn them halfway. Do not open the oven nor interrupt their roasting time, that might through this delicate food's cooking time off.

That does sound like a delicious dipping sauce. OK, you've convinced me - I have to go pick up some shrimp this weekend while the kids/grandkids are here and make some for us.


I've recently become a huge fan of Ina Garten. I just love her style. Some of her recipes are a little on the "heavy" side, but sifting through them are many I would make. Her cooking is approachable and I'm learning so much. On her website you can watch her videos and I recently ordered four of her cooking books! A bit of a splurge during these hard economic times. She's inspirational. I just learned how to make (and correctly pronounce) Creme Fraiche! I'm thrilled.

PS I love it when she says, "Be sure and use a good mayonnaise." My husband said, "She's my kind of gal!"


Another great sounding recipe... thanks for the post...^5
