Cooking Tips

• To cook the shrimp, you can either boil them or sauté them in a pan with some olive oil.
• If you prefer a milder version, you can remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapenos before filling them.
• Make sure to handle the jalapenos with gloves or wash your hands thoroughly after handling them, as the oils can cause irritation.

Storage and Serving

• These Shrimp Jalapeno Boats are best served fresh and hot.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the boats on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
