Pickled Shrimp Recipe

Pickled shrimp make an easy and delicious appetizer because there's very little cooking time and they're ready to serve right out of the fridge. Serve the shrimp with a flavorful aioli for dipping, or with spreads and baguette slices.

Chopped fresh dill and parsley give the shrimp extra color and flavor, along with the creole seasoning and garlic. If you like spicy food, add extra sliced chile peppers or red pepper flakes. Plan to prepare the shrimp early in the day or the day before you will be serving them. Refrigerate the shrimp and pickling mixture for at least 6 hours before serving or for up to 24 hours.
