Time 15m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 head romaine lettuce
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1 small maui onion, diced
2 ounces cooked shrimp
1 avocado, diced
1 teaspoon capers
2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
2 stalks green onions, chopped
house vinaigrette
1/4 cup olive oil
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 pinch black pepper
1 hard-boiled egg white, shredded
1 ounce roasted red peppers, diced or 1 ounce pimiento

Steps:

  • Shred lettuce into fine strips.
  • Combine and toss in a large bowl with diced tomatoes, onion and bay shrimp.
  • Add diced avocado.
  • For dressing: Whisk together ingredients. Olive oil, red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, black pepper, hard boiled egg whites shredded, and 1 ounce roasted red pepper diced or 1 ounce pimentos ( in a pinch I have used a quick dressing of olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, salt, pepper and basil. Pretty much adjust it all to taste. It is a GREAT quick replacement and saves having to hard boil and egg and find pimentos or roasted red peppers.).

GINGERY SHRIMP SALAD WITH CRISPIES



Gingery Shrimp Salad with Crispies image

Composing a great dinner salad is all about achieving the right balance of textures and flavors. Here, it's the juicy seared shrimp and crunchy tortilla strips that make this healthy entrée seem like a special occasion treat, even though it's quick and easy enough to make on a weeknight.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup hot-pepper jelly
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided, plus more for frying
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 ounces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 small (6-inch) flour tortillas, cut into 1-by-1/2-inch strips
4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
3 cups store-bought coleslaw mix
1 cup frozen edamame, thawed and drained
1 cup mixed fresh herb leaves, such as mint and cilantro

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together jelly, ginger, vinegar, and 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Place 3 tablespoons dressing in another bowl; add shrimp and toss.
  • Heat 1/2 inch oil in a small, deep pot over medium until a single tortilla strip sizzles immediately when added. Fry half of tortilla strips, stirring occasionally, until crisp and light golden, about 30 seconds. Transfer to paper towels; season with salt. Repeat with remaining strips.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add shrimp in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until pink and lightly charred, about 3 minutes total. Transfer to a plate. Toss romaine, coleslaw, edamame, and herbs with remaining dressing. Top with shrimp and tortilla strips; serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your shrimp salad.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp should be cooked just until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Chill the salad before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together and will make the salad more refreshing.
  • Serve the salad on a bed of greens or with a side of bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Maui Wowie Shrimp Salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. The combination of sweet pineapple, creamy avocado, and crunchy celery and onion is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy recipe, give Maui Wowie Shrimp Salad a try.
