This tangy shrimp dipping sauce combines the richness of mayonnaise with the zest of lemon and a kick of heat, providing the perfect accompaniment to fresh shrimp. It's an ideal blend of flavors that is both easy to make and sure to impress.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the ½ cup mayonnaise, 2 tbsp ketchup, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, and ½ tsp hot sauce until smooth.
Add Flavorings:
Stir in the 1 tsp dijon mustard, 1 clove garlic, ½ tsp smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Taste and Adjust:
Give the sauce a taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. If you like it spicier, add more hot sauce. If you prefer it tangier, a little extra lemon juice can do the trick.
Chill:
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve:
Remove from the fridge, give it a quick stir, and serve chilled with your perfectly cooked shrimp.
