How to Make Our Broiled Shrimp Recipe

We don’t have a video for this broiled shrimp recipe because it was just a spur of the moment dish we cooked up one Monday night here at our home in Baton Rouge. It was so darn good we decided to put the recipe up for y’all. Here’s how I made the broiled shrimp we cooked up last night –

Broiled Shrimp Recipe Ingredients

1 pound of jumbo shrimp
1 Vidalia (sweet) onion
1 Garlic
Cilantro
Several limes or lemons (I prefer limes, Beryl prefers lemons)
Olive oil

Broiled Shrimp Recipe Seasonings

Garlic (we prefer granulated over powder)
Salt (we use sea salt)
Cajun or Creole seasoning (we use Tony’s Creole Seasoning)

Broiled Shrimp Recipe Preparation

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (to make cleanup easier)

Spray baking sheet with oil (we use spray olive oil)

Slice Vidalia onion into rounds like you would for a hamburger

Slice the fresh garlic pods into thin slivers

Chop up some fresh cilantro

Peel and de-vein the shrimp

Squeeze some lemon or lime over the shrimp and let sit while you’re doing the other stuff

Spread the onion slices out on the baking sheet

Put a dab (about a teaspoon) of olive oil on each onion slice

Spread the shrimp out over the onion slices

Squeeze fresh lemon or lime juice over the shrimp

Brush a little olive oil on the shrimp (optional step)

Season the shrimp with sea salt, granulated garlic and Tony’s

Put the garlic slivers on top of the shrimp

Put some chopped cilantro on top of the shrimp

How to Cook the Broiled Shrimp Recipe

Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees

Bake the shrimp for 7 minutes at 400 degrees

Then change your oven setting to “Broil” and broil the shrimp for about 7 minutes

Remove from oven and serve

Broiled Shrimp Recipe Serving Suggestions

Squeeze some lemon or lime on your shrimp if desired

Serve with Melon Salsa either on top of the shrimp or on the side.

This is real good stuff.
