Steps:
- Thaw shrimp according to package instructions, then rinse under cold water and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Place shrimp on a large rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil and sprinkle on 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Stir to combine then arrange shrimp in a single layer.
- Bake at 450˚F for 8-10 min or until shrimp turn pink and are just cooked through.* As soon as they come out of the oven, test a shrimp for doneness then transfer all shrimp to a serving platter. If they stay on the hot baking sheet, they can get overcooked.
- Combine all of the Cocktail Sauce ingredients, adding horseradish and hot sauce to taste (Add more if you love cocktail sauce with a spicy kick and less if you prefer a mild sauce). Cover and refrigerate sauce and shrimp for at least an hour or overnight. Serve chilled.

Steps:
- Poach the shrimp: Add 6 cups of water to a medium-sized saucepan. Squeeze the lemon juice into the saucepan and then add in the lemon halves as well. Add the parsley sprigs, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and peppercorns and bring to a simmer. Once the water is simmering, add the shrimp and cook until just opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the poaching liquid and chill completely.
- To serve: Cover a platter with crushed ice and arrange the shrimp on top. Serve with the Spicy Cocktail and Lemon-Basil cocktail sauces.
- Add the ketchup, chipotle, horseradish and lemon juice to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, basil, lemon zest, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a small bowl and whisk to combine.

Steps:
- 1. Combine the shrimp in a saucepan with water to cover. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, remove from the heat, and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and chill (you can run the shrimp under cold water if you're in a hurry).
- 2. Combine the ketchup, vinegar, and butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts. (At this point, you can keep the sauce warm for over an hour - but keep the heat as low as possible.) Add horseradish to taste.
- 3. Serve the cold shrimp with the sauce, warm or cold.
- Keys to Success
- The easiest way to cook shrimp is to let them steep in hot water until they're done; they will cook through but not overcook, and thus remain tender. Peel them before cooking.
- With Minimal Effort
- If you have fresh horseradish, grate it and serve it separately from the sauce; dip the shrimp into the ketchup sauce and then into the horseradish.
- Use fresh lemon juice instead of vinegar and/or Tabasco or other hot sauce in place of the horseradish.
- Cook the shrimp with herbs or spices, such as a premixed combination of pickling spices, or simply a couple of bay leaves, some peppercorns, and some whole coriander seeds.
- Wine: Chardonnay or Pinot Blanc
- Serve With: If you serve this as an appetizer, follow with pasta or risotto. If you serve this as a main course, serve with bread and a steamed vegetable
