Roasted Shrimp Cocktail with Chipotle Aioli is an easy, fool-proof, and updated version of classic shrimp cocktail. Instead of poaching, the shrimp are quickly roasted with olive oil, salt and pepper for an instant upgrade in flavor. The garlic-infused chipotle dipping sauce is the perfect compliment!
Toss shrimp with olive oil, 1/4 tsp chipotle powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until bright pink and slightly curled, about 7-8 minutes. Do not overcook!
While the shrimp cook, add mayo, chili powder, cumin, garlic, lime juice, remaining chipotle powder, and salt to a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve shrimp with dipping sauce warm or at room temp!
