Shrimp Cocktail Sauce
Report
This easy Shrimp Cocktail sauce recipe is made with just three ingredients (ketchup, lemon juice and horseradish). It's so simple, takes a few seconds to make, and compliments the shrimp perfectly.

Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well to combine.
- Taste and adjust to your preference (more horseradish if you want it spicier and more ketchup if you want it mellower).
- The sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated for several days in advance. Serve cold with shrimp.
Notes
- Shrimp: There are about 16-20 large shrimp in one pound, and I recommend buying about 1 1/2 lbs. You can double the recipe to serve a larger crowd. Choose large, tail-on, frozen shrimp. Large shrimp fill the space in the platter beautifully, and tail-on are more flavorful and easy for guests to grab and eat. I prefer frozen, pre-cooked shrimp for ease in preparation (as long as it's high quality). Shrimp sold at inland grocery seafood counters was likely shipped frozen, and thawed for display
- Make Ahead Instructions: Shrimp cocktail sauce can be made up to one week in advance. Cover it tightly and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Storage Instructions: Keep leftover shrimp and sauce in the fridge.
