    Ingredients

    • 1- 4 pound box rock salt
    • 24 Jumbo shrimp (UNPEELED and deveined)
    • 1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
    • ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
    • ¼ cup minced green onions

    Note

    I first came across this Roasted Shrimp appetizer in Cooking Light Magazine several years ago.

    I've since misplaced the pages, but was able to find the Roasted Shrimp recipe online at MyRecipes.com.  Love the internet!  I found shell-on, deveined jumbo shrimp at my grocery store and they work really well.  No additional cleaning required!  If you have to devein your shrimp at home, simply use scissors to snip down the shell, left the vein out and discard. There are also helpful videos on YouTube!

    Enjoy! -- The Recipe Wench

    Directions

    Step 1
    Pour salt into large cast iron skillet. Spread out into an even layer. Place skillet in 400°F oven.

    Heat salt for approximately 30 minutes.

    Arrange shrimp in single layer over hot salt.

    Cover with foil and return to oven for approximately 5-8 minutes, depending on size of the shrimp.
    Step 2
    While shrimp are cooking, whisk together remaining ingredients and serve alongside shrimp for dipping.
