This delicious appetizer is courtesy of Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa). If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Luisascatering on this site should take a bow once again! I served this dish in mini-martini glasses to guests last night and they raved about it! Read more ! If you purchase the shrimp with the vein out, then shelling and rinsing will be a snap. I made the sauce a day ahead of time except for the fresh lemon juice which I added right before serving. Roasting the shrimp instead of boiling it makes a world of flavor difference....try it!

2 pounds (12 to 15-count) shrimp
