Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
⅔ cup olive oil
⅔ cup Italian-style salad dressing
1 head garlic, crushed and peeled
1 large jalapeno pepper, diced
coarse salt to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a 6-quart pot of water to a boil; cook shrimp until bright pink and cooked through, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer shrimp using a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice water to cool; drain and pat shrimp dry. Place shrimp in a large resealable bag.
  • Mix olive oil, salad dressing, garlic, and jalapeno pepper together in a glass or plastic bowl; pour marinade into bag of shrimp, coat shrimp with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spread a thin layer of salt over foil.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Remove shrimp, 1 at a time, from marinade and place on the salted baking sheet. Discard unused marinade.
  • Place baking sheet on rack furthest away from the broiler. Broil in the preheated oven until shrimp begin to brown and peel back, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn off broiler and crack oven door open for 3 minutes before removing shrimp from oven.
