• 2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined

• 1 large jalapeno pepper, diced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven's broiler.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spread a thin layer of salt over foil.

Step 5

Remove shrimp, 1 at a time, from marinade and place on the salted baking sheet. Discard unused marinade.

Step 6

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.
