Categories     Shellfish     Avocado

Number Of Ingredients 18

ngredients for the remoulade dressing:
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Creole or grainy mustard
2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 teaspoon red pepper sauce, such as Tabasco
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 green onions, green part only, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley
Salt
Ingredients for the salad:
1 pound small shrimp (51-60 count), peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 head ice berg lettuce, cored and chopped
2 celery ribs, finely diced
2 avocados, peeled, pitted, and diced
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • To make the remoulade dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, red pepper sauce, garlic, green onion, and parsley. Taste and add salt if needed. To make the shrimp for the salad, bring a 3-quart saucepan filled with water to a boil. Add the the shrimp and the salt. Cook the shrimp until pink, about 2 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water. To assemble the salad, in a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked shrimp with the lettuce, celery, and avocado. You can either serve the salad dressed by adding the remoulade to the mixing bowl and tossing, or you can evenly divide the salad onto 4 plates or into 4 bowls, and serve with the dressing on the side. I also like to serve the salad with lemon wedges for an added bit of brightness.

I'm not a fan of avocado, so I left it out of my salad. It was still delicious!

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I made this salad with grilled chicken instead. It was still really good!

This salad is way too expensive for what you get. I could make a better salad at home for half the price.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad didn't turn out very well. The shrimp were overcooked and the remoulade dressing was too thick.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I always have shrimp leftover from making shrimp tacos, and this salad is a perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a huge fan of shrimp, but I really enjoyed this salad. The remoulade dressing was so good that it made me forget all about the shrimp.
