Jump to RecipeNow that you have all of your ingredients, let's get started on making this festive dish. First, we'll start with the cranberry-citrus jello layer. In a saucepan, combine the cranberries, orange juice, lime juice, sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the mixture becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and stir in the unflavored gelatin until completely dissolved. Pour this mixture into a 9x13 inch dish and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
Next, we'll move on to the shrimp layer. In a separate saucepan, combine the shrimp, chicken broth, garlic, bay leaves, onion, and lemon. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and strain the mixture, reserving the broth. In a separate bowl, dissolve the unflavored gelatin in 1 cup of the reserved broth. Let cool slightly before pouring over the set cranberry-citrus jello layer. Refrigerate for another 2 hours, or until set.
Once both layers are set, it's time to assemble and garnish the jello. Cut the shrimp layer into small squares and arrange them on top of the cranberry-citrus layer. Add fresh cranberries, lime slices, and herbs for a festive touch. Your Christmas shrimp jello is now ready to be served and enjoyed by all!
This unique dish is not only delicious, but it also adds a fun and unexpected element to your Christmas spread. Impress your guests with this creative and tasty Christmas shrimp jello recipe. Happy holidays!
