I love a good spicy appetizer.  Something to tingle the tastebuds, ya know?

Spicy Horseradish Shrimp | Inspiration Kitchen

As the holidays approach, I’m always looking for great appetizers to share with family and friends as we gather around the table to enjoy time together.

When the dish is fast and easy to throw together, it’s even better.  Wouldn’t you rather spend time with friends, then spending hours in the kitchen?  I know I would!

You get both with this Spicy Horseradish Shrimp.

It takes just a few minutes to put together (then you let it marinate!) and after only 4-8 minutes under the broiler, you’ve got a quick and easy appetizer that everyone will love!

Enjoy!

    I love a nice, spicy and easy appetizer as well! Yes, I do prefer to spend less time at the stovetop and more visiting, so this is perfect!

      Me too Marcie – more visiting – less cooking! Love to cook, but not when I have friends over! Then its time for time together!

    Confession – I can’t stand shrimp! haha Everyone makes fun of me but I just don’t like it! The texture completely weirds me out! Buttt my husband loves shrimp – and I know he would be a huge fan of this – especially with the spicy hot sauce and horseradish! And I love how quick this is – so simple!

      I so understand the texture thing! It took me a long time to get used to the texture. 🙂 But, now that I have, they are so simple and fast and easy to keep in the freezer for a quick weeknight meal. I hope your hubby loves them! Have a great week Ashley!

    Oh my, I would definitely love this dish! I just need to find someone willing to share these shrimps with me. I guess I’m not lucky in that sense since I live with people who do not appreciate fish 🙁

      I love cooking with horseradish! But, I love horseradish in general 🙂 so that’s no surprise. Any time I need a bit of extra kick in a spicy dish, I put a little in there! It really makes a difference. Enjoy!
