Serving Suggestions

Oven (broil) method (alternative)

  1. Preheat broiler. Toss shrimp with olive oil and seasoning mix. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet.
  2. Broil 2–4 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Finish with melted butter mixed with garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and parsley spooned over shrimp.

Phase 3: The Shrimp

  1. Prep: Pat the shrimp completely dry. Toss them in a bowl with the seafood seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  2. Searing/Roasting:
    • Stovetop Method: Heat an oven-safe cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil or butter. Sear shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
    • Oven Method (closer to original): Toss shrimp in the sauce directly in the cast-iron skillet. Place in a preheated 450°F oven for 6-8 minutes.
  3. Combining: If seared on the stovetop, reduce heat to low and pour the sauce mixture over the shrimp. Toss vigorously to coat. If baked, remove from oven and stir to coat in the pan juices.
