1/2 cup vegetable oil (do not use all olive oil---it will coagulate in fridge)
2T (or more) hot sauce (like Texas Pete or Thai)
1/2 tablespoon minced garlic (about 2 cloves)
1 teaspoon salt (I use garlic salt)
½ teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried thyme
Or 2 tsp italian seasoning for basil/oregano/thyme
1T fresh parsley (I use cilantro, and more)
2T vinegar
2T ketchup
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 lemon sliced very thinly
2 pounds frozen cooked peeled shrimp, thawed

Place all ingredients except shrimp in large ziplock bag and "knead" well to combine and make the marinade. Add thawed shrimp and gently "knead" some more to distribute marinade. Chill for at least 8 hours. Drain and serve in a lettuce lined bowl.
