Beer-Boiled Shrimp With Old Bay&Reg;

Bay leaf, by its very nature, plays second fiddle to other, more prominent flavors.

Recipe Summary Beer-Boiled Shrimp With Old Bay&Reg;

Easy, foolproof cooking technique. The Old Bay® seasoning accentuates the shrimp rather than overpowers. A versatile dish that can fill many roles! Serve with cocktail sauce and/or melted butter.

Ingredients | Types Of Bay Leaves

4 (12 ounce) bottles beer

1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

1 teaspoon salt

1 lemon, halved crosswise

1 ½ pounds fresh shrimp, with shells and tails on

Directions

Combine beer, seafood seasoning, and salt in a large saucepan or stockpot over medium-high heat. Squeeze juice from both lemon halves into the beer mixture and add both rinds to the beer. Stir and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and boil for 10 minutes.

Add shrimp to boiling liquid, cover again with the lid, and turn off the heat. Transfer shrimp to serving bowls when they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 3 minutes.

You can use your favorite shellfish boil seasoning instead of Old Bay(R), if desired.

Get head-on shrimp if you can. And if you use frozen, make sure they are completely thawed before cooking.
