- Before you begin, make sure the frozen shrimp is completely thawed. If you cook them straight from the freezer, they will steam rather than roast.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Drain and dry the thawed shrimp on paper towels before placing them in the roasting pan.
- Drizzle the shrimp with olive oil and lime juice. Toss the shrimp with a spatula or a cooking spoon to coat them. Spread them out into a single, equal layer.
- You should season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
- Bake the shrimp for 8 to 10 minutes, or until firm and pink.
- The warm shrimp can be served warm or chilled shrimp can be served cold.
If you wish to serve the roasted shrimp as an entree, toss in some quick-cook vegetables like asparagus or cherry tomatoes, along with a pinch of garlic and herbs. You can watch this video recipe for how to cook frozen shrimp in the oven.
