Shrimp Romaine Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the dressing: Add the parsley, spinach, chives, tarragon, garlic, mayonnaise, canola oil, lime juice and vinegar to a blender. Blend until it resembles an emulsified dressing consistency. If it's too thick add a splash of water to loosen it up.
• For the romaine hearts: Preheat a grill or grill pan to a medium heat. Whisk to combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl; rub on the romaine leaves using your hands. Grill the romaine until nice and charred, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• For the shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry and toss with some canola oil in a bowl. Grill for 2 minutes on each side.
• For the salad: Place the romaine halves on each plate, divide the shrimp on top, sprinkle with the croutons and drizzle with the dressing. Top with Parmesan.

Steps:

• For the garlicky croutons: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Spread out the bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the garlic oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, tossing the croutons once halfway through, until crisp, about 25 minutes. Set aside and cool completely.
• For the Caesar dressing: Put the garlic oil in a blender. Add the anchovies, mustard, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. Add the Parmesan and give it a quick blitz. (You want to retain some of the texture of the cheese.)
• For the salad: Peel and pit the avocados, then slice lengthwise into spears and sprinkle with some lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
• Arrange the romaine in a line on a platter with the inside of each quarter-head of lettuce facing upward. Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce, allowing it to seep into the layers of leaves. Arrange the shrimp on top, along with the croutons. Scatter the cheese shavings and parsley leaves over the top. Squeeze the lemon half over the whole platter and serve.

Steps:

• Bring 5 quarts of water, 3 tablespoons salt, and the lemon to a boil in a large saucepan. Add half the shrimp and reduce the heat to medium. Cook uncovered for only 3 minutes or until the shrimp are barely cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl of cold water. Bring the water back to a boil and repeat with the remaining shrimp. Let cool; then peel, and devein the shrimp.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, wine or vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and dill. Combine with the peeled shrimp. Add the red onion and celery and check the seasonings. Serve or cover and refrigerate for a few hours.

Steps:

• For the salad: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. In a large bowl add the romaine lettuce, corn, zucchini, and shrimp and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill the romaine lettuce, turning occasionally, until crisp-tender and browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Coarsely chop the grilled lettuce and add it to a large salad bowl. Grill the corn and zucchini for 2 minutes on all sides until crisp-tender. Remove the kernels from the corn and add to the salad bowl. Chop the zucchini into 1/2-inch pieces and add to the bowl. Grill the shrimp until the meat is opaque and cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Cool slightly and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Add the chopped shrimp, butter lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado to the bowl.
• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil and agave nectar until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until all the ingredients are coated. Garnish the salad with tortilla strips and serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, celery, egg whites, walnuts and onions.
• Add the dressing and stir until the shrimp-mixture is coated.
• Cover and chill in the refrigerator about 30 minutes to blend the flavors.
• To serve, divide the lettuce among four plates.
• Then top with shrimp mixture.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the Romaine, radishes, green onions, cucumber, tomatoes, celery and shrimp. Toss with favorite salad dressing and serve.
