Shrimp Cocktail My Way

Hey guys! Today, I have a shrimp cocktail recipe my way. I love this recipe, it is so easy and delicious. Back in my younger days we would have this from time to time. It is a little different than what I use to have. That is the beauty of cooking and baking, you can make it your own and add as little or as much of ingredients as you like. If you don’t like a certain ingredient you can substitute it for something else.

Here are the ingredients

Let’s begin,

Ingredients:

  • 4 Radish
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Jalapeño
  • 1 TBS Butter
  • 1 Bag Seafood Medley
  • 1 lb. Crab Legs
  • 8 oz. Oysters
  • 14 oz. V8 Juice
  • Old bay Seasoning to your taste
Ingredients

Directions:

  1. Start by steaming your crab legs (when you go and buy them if you like they can steam the crab legs for you with the seasoning) I like to steam them myself, you do what you like. Don’t forget if you steam them at home to add your oldbay seasoning.
  2. Peel and devein you shrimp.
  3. In a hot pan add butter, shrimp, and seafood medley (if you are using both, if not just add your seafood medley and butter) cook according to bag (8-10 min)
  4. Steam your oysters if you like ( you can also eat your oyster as is, it is how you like it)
  5. Thin slice your radish
  6. Dice your cucumber, avocado, and jalapeño
  7. Add seafood medley and shrimp first. You will be adding cucumber, avocado, radish, jalapeños, and cilantro. Lastly, you will add your V8 as much or as little as you like.

I like to use crab legs, oysters, and home made tostones as a side. If you would like I do not mind sharing my recipe. You can also substitute the tostones for saltine crackers. (I love the tostones better, it gives it a tropical flavor in my opinion)

Don’t forget your butter
