Number Of Ingredients 13

Yogurt Dipping Sauce:
1 large egg white
3/4 cup dry falafel mix
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp (36 to 50 per pound), tails on
Coarse salt and ground pepper
Yogurt Dipping Sauce
3/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Coarse salt and ground pepper
Cook's Note: Made from ground chickpeas, dry falafel mix is usually turned into patties and fried. We use it here to give shrimp a Middle Eastern flavor and a crisp coating. Look for the mix in the pasta or grains section of grocery stores.

Steps:

  • Yogurt Dipping Sauce Directions: Step 1 In a small bowl, stir together 3/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 small minced garlic clove, and 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Falafel-Coated Shrimp:  Step 1 In a medium bowl, whisk egg white until slightly frothy. Add a quarter of the shrimp; toss to coat. Lift shrimp, shaking off excess egg white. Transfer to a plate. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons falafel mix, and toss until well coated. Transfer to a clean plate. Repeat to coat another quarter of the shrimp.  Step 2 Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add coated shrimp; cook until golden brown, turning once with tongs, 3 to 4 minutes total. Remove from heat. Transfer shrimp to a paper-towel lined plate. Wipe skillet with a paper towel. Step 3 Working in two batches, coat remaining shrimp as described in step 1; cook in remaining 3 tablespoons oil as instructed in step 2. Season shrimp with salt pepper, and serve with sauce.
