Boiled Shrimp

By SteveV

Ingredients

• 5 pounds shrimp
• 1 tablespoon Zatarain's Liquid Crab Boil
• 5 tablespoons salt

Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot add enough water to cover shrimp completely (but do not add shrimp yet), Zatarain's Liquid Crab Boil, and salt. Cover pot and bring water to a rolling boil. Add shrimp, stir, and cover. Return to boil, uncover pot, and boil vigorously for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to soak for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, do a taste test. If shrimp does not taste seasoned enough, allow to soak another 5 minutes and retest. Drain carefully and serve.
