I have a large bag of peeled shrimp defrosting and I'm trying to decide what to do when I get home. I thought about making a stir fry or a pasta, but I'm really just craving boiled shrimp, corn, and potatoes.

I've never boiled shrimp that has already been peeled before. Do they come out all right boiled like that and is there anything I need to do special/different?

They come out pretty damn good, you only need to boil them for a couple minutes. I find they tend to be spicers when I boil them peeled.

Just poach them. Don't let them sit in too long.

I do it all the time. 3qts water and 3/4 cup of crab boil. Get it to a rolling boil and them drop a lb of peeled deveined frozen shrimp in the water. Leave the heat on high for about two minutes then turn it off and let them soak for 15. Remove and eat. Easy easy. Put the corn in if it is frozen while the water is cold. Let them heat up with the water. If you want potatoes, put them in and let the water boil for about ten minutes before adding corn, then shrimp

I actually like putting a link of sausage cut into medallions in with the corn too.
