Bloody Mary Seafood Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Pour pasta (from Suddenly Salad box) into 3-quart saucepan 2/3 full of boiling water. Gently boil uncovered 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain pasta. Rinse with cold water; drain well.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, stir together seasoning (from Suddenly Salad box), Bloody Mary mix and vodka until blended. Stir in cooked pasta, shrimp, cucumber and bell pepper. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
• To serve, place lemon and lime slices, mushrooms and olives on wooden skewers. Serve salad with skewers, beef jerky and celery sticks.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok, then turn up the heat and add the garlic and scallops. Stir-fry for 30 seconds to 1 min until the scallops are just cooked. Tip onto a plate. Heat the remaining oil and stir-fry the prawns for 1-2 mins over a high heat until they turn pink, then season with some black pepper. Tip onto the plate with the scallops. Allow the seafood to cool completely.
• To make the bloody mary sauce, mix the tomato juice with the oyster sauce (use 2 tbsp for a stronger flavour), light soy sauce, rice vinegar and lemon juice. Taste and adjust the flavour with more of the ingredients if you want an even stronger flavour.
• When the seafood is cool, divide it between four glasses or small bowls, keeping 4 prawns for garnish. Add the celery and avocado to each glass and pour over the tomato mixture. Leave to marinade for 10 mins, or cover and chill for up to 4 hrs. Garnish each glass with the reserved prawns and some coriander.

Steps:

• DRESSING: In a saucepan over medium-high, heat the olive oil. Saute the shallots until soft about 2-3 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with vodka; simmering until almost all evaporated. Add the V8 juice, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, mustard, sugar, horseradish, celery seed, and fresh lemon juice.
• Boil the mixture for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and chill. Dressing can be prepared several hours in advance.
• SALAD: Toss remaining ingredients together and season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the mixture among 4 plates, arranging on each plate a shot glass filled with the salad dressing, placed to the side.

Steps:

• Prepare shrimp:
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 2 quarts water) to a boil. Add shrimp, then remove from heat and let stand in water until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Cut shrimp into thirds and transfer to a large bowl with celery and scallions.
• Make sauce:
• Whisk together all sauce ingredients, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste.
• Just before serving, stir sauce into shrimp mixture. Spoon 2 shrimp pieces with vegetables and sauce into each soupspoon and arrange spoons on a platter.
