Roasted Shrimp Cocktail With Lemon-Horseradish Aioli
Roasted Shrimp Cocktail with Lemon-Horseradish Aioli is a flavorful twist on the classic shrimp cocktail. Instead of boiling, the shrimp are roasted for a deeper, savory taste, then served chilled or warm with a zesty aioli made from lemon juice and spicy horseradish. It’s elegant, tangy, and perfect as a party appetizer or starter.
