Shrimp Cocktail Appetizer Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Place them on a sheet pan with the olive oil, salt, and pepper and spread them in 1 layer. Roast for 8 to10 minutes, just until pink and firm and cooked through. Set aside to cool.
• For the sauce, combine the chili sauce, ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Serve as a dip with the shrimp.

Steps:

• Whisk the tomato paste and water in a measuring cup until smooth (the mixture should be of a somewhat thick consistency). Add the vodka, lemon juice, horseradish, and sugar. Season to taste with the salt, pepper, and cayenne.
• Serve individually in 16 porcelain Chinese soup spoons by adding about a 1/2 tablespoon of sauce into each spoon, topped with a shrimp and a jalapeno slice, if desired. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Make the shrimp: In a large bowl, toss together the shrimp and 2 teaspoons salt, and set aside. Keep the 8 cups ice nearby, either in another large bowl or directly in the icemaker tray of your refrigerator.
• Meanwhile, fill a large pot with 8 cups water, 1/2 cup salt, the chile powder and celery seeds, and bring to a boil. Remove the pot from the heat and add the shrimp to the hot liquid, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through and no longer translucent on the inside, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Immediately dump the ice into the pot to stop the cooking, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is cool to warm or room temperature, about 1 minute. Pour the contents of the pot into a colander in the sink, then transfer the drained, celery seed-dotted shrimp to a large platter and refrigerate until ready to eat. Cut the lemons into quarters lengthwise, then cut each piece in half crosswise.
• Make the cocktail sauce: In a small bowl, stir the ketchup, lemon juice, horseradish and garlic to combine, and season to taste with salt, pepper and Tabasco sauce.
• Make the garlicky dill butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat or in the microwave. Add the garlic, dill, lemon juice and sugar to a small bowl and stir in the hot melted butter. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Make the curried honey mustard: In a small bowl, stir the mayonnaise, mustard, honey, lemon juice, curry powder and cayenne to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. All three sauces can be stored in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. (The dill butter will need to be reheated in the microwave or on the stove over medium-low heat until liquid again.)
• To serve, cover a large platter with cubed or crushed ice, top with the poached and cooled shrimp and scatter the lemon pieces all over. Serve with one or more of the dipping sauces on the side.

Steps:

• Chop shrimp into small pieces. Mix with cream cheese, onion, and 1 tablespoon horseradish sauce. Form mixture into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight.
• Mix ketchup, horseradish, and lemon juice for sauce together until well blended. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
• Unwrap shrimp ball and place on a platter. Pour sauce over top and serve.

Steps:

• Spread each cracker with 1 tsp of the cream cheese spread.
• Top evenly with the cocktail sauce and one shrimp.
• Sprinkle some of the finely chopped onions on top (if you desire).
