Everybody can make fun of the old stodgy shrimp cocktail but really, who does not like a good shrimp with some cool spicy dip on a hot summer day. Key to this is we are grilling the shrimp and we are making our own cocktail sauce.

Ingredients

one cup good tomato ketchup no high fructose corn syrup
one cup grated fresh horseradish prepared can be used
half a pound medium shrimp peeled and cleaned
kosher salt
fresh cracked pepper
vegetable oil
blacken seasoning optional

Directions

Start by getting your grill going so it will get nice and hot then prepare the cocktail sauce. Take the ketchup and grate about equal amount of fresh horseradish into it, add a little lemon juice and a few drops of sesame oil and blend together. Use less or more horseradish depending on how hot you like it.

Now take your cleaned shrimp and brush on some vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper, I also dusted mine with some blacken seasoning for a little smokey flavor but that is optional. Now take your shrimp to you hot grill and cook them on the first side for about one min until they are just starting to char a little (the grill should be very hot) turn over and finish for about one more min. now take off put on a plate and into the freezer for at least five min to cool and stop the cooking.

To plate just serve anyway you like or use the presentation I have in the photo, finish with some more freshly grated horseradish and go to town!
