Tequila Lime Shrimp Cocktail
June 26, 2024
Shrimp cocktail is always a great option for rounding out your appetizer menu — it works for a larger party, a smaller gathering or even a slightly elevated family dinner. The addition of L&B Shrimp Tequila Lime Seasoning in this recipe turns an ordinary shrimp cocktail into a light, bright Mexican-inspired dish that is as versatile and crowd pleasing as it is refreshing and delicious. The L&B seasoning adds the perfect balance of flavor to the shrimp, just enough to make its mark without overpowering the natural freshness.
And this appetizer is so easy to put together! Lunds & Byerlys has everything you need for this recipe. Pick up the jumbo shrimp, seasonings and L&B Meyer Lemon & Shallot Cocktail Sauce and it’s on your table with just 10 minutes of prep and 5 minutes under the broiler.
