THIS IS SO DELICIOUS! One of my top recipes of all time! An easy-to-make appetizer or first course. The flavors will intensify when marinated overnight. Serve in a large bowl lined with lettuce and kale for a fancy look. This is the best shrimp ever. It has become a staple for all "impress the guests" meals. It's easy! This shrimp is a perfect appetizer. I got this from a really fabulous book called Above & Beyond Parsley presented by the Junior League of Kansas City, Missouri.

3-2-1-1 Vinaigrette image

This is my classic go-to dressing and makes just enough for a nice salad. I love it most with red wine or balsamic vinegar. You can also easily double or triple this recipe if you need a larger amount. Heartier greens like romaine and iceberg need more dressing. More delicate greens like arugula need less.

Categories     Citrus     Pasta     Basil     Shrimp     Summer     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2-ounce packages fresh basil leaves, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
1 1/2 pounds uncooked medium shrimp, peeled, deveined
1 pound gnocchi pasta or orecchiette pasta
4 zucchini, halved lengthwise
Olive oil
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Combine 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice and Dijon mustard small bowl. Gradually mix in 1/3 cup olive oil. Mix in chopped fresh basil. Place shrimp in medium bowl. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, brush zucchini on both sides with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill until charred, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Add shrimp to grill and cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to large bowl. Cut zucchini crosswise into 1-inch pieces and add to shrimp.
  • Drain pasta well. Add to bowl with shrimp and zucchini. Add basil vinaigrette and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared up to 1 hour ahead. Let stand at room temperature.) Serve pasta warm or at room temperature, passing grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a more delicate flavor and texture than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them properly before cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque, but not overcooked. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Make sure the vinaigrette is well-balanced: The vinaigrette should be tangy and flavorful, but not too acidic or oily. Adjust the proportions of vinegar, oil, and Dijon mustard to taste.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, and dill, add a bright flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not have as much flavor.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can cook the shrimp and then chill it. Bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:

Shrimp in Dijon Vinaigrette is a light and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The shrimp are cooked to perfection and the Dijon vinaigrette adds a tangy and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
