South Beach Shrimp Louis Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Dry the shrimp well with paper towels. Place them on a sheet pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, toss well and spread them out in one layer. Roast for 10 minutes, until firm and just cooked through. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, lemon zest, lemon juice, horseradish, Sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the scallions and capers. Arrange the shrimp on a platter with the sauce in the middle for dipping. Offer a separate bowl for the discarded shrimp tails.

Steps:

• To make the shrimp:.
• Drop the shrimp into boiling water flavored witha little salt and lime juice. Cook til just pink, usually 1-2 minute Drain and cool slightly; shell and devein. Place in a bowl; cover with plastic wrap and chill.
• Arrange lettuce leaves to cover two large dinner plates (at Joe's, this is made on large oval plate). Place a mound of shrimp on one side and a mound of garbanzo beans on the other. Place tomato slices in the four "corners" of the plate. Cut the eggs lengthwise in quarters and place a quarter next to each tomato slice. Place a lemon half at the end of each plate and 2 olives at the top and bottom. Place the green pepper rings at the edges. Cover and chill if not serving immediately.
• To make the Louis dressing:.
• Combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, grated onion, parsley, salt, black pepper, cream, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco sauce. Stir until blended. Chill, covered, until serving time. If too thick, stir in a little more cream. Serve dressing in a small sauce-boat beside the shrimp.
• This is a good-looking plate. The Louis dressing can be used for other cold seafood, too. Louis dressing contains a large amount of mayonnaise, but is not a problem if used as a dip. Don't eat it like soup!

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the salad: To make medium-boiled eggs, put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath. Remove the shells once cool and quarter each egg lengthwise.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high. Put the shrimp to a medium bowl, sprinkle with the Old Bay Seasoning and toss to coat. Swirl the oil into the skillet, then stir in the shrimp and cook, tossing occasionally, just until pink and firm, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and reserve.
• Put the lettuce, tomato, cucumber and avocado in a second large bowl. Season with 1 pinch each salt and pepper. Dress with about 1/2 cup of the dressing and toss gently to coat the vegetables. Divide onto 4 plates and arrange the shrimp and medium-boiled eggs on top before serving. Serve the remaining dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Whisk mayonnaise, chili sauce, mustard, lemon juice and lemon peel in small bowl to blend. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Arrange greens on 2 plates. Top greens with 1 avocado half, rounded side down. Fill avocado cavities with shrimp. Spoon dressing over; sprinkle with green onion.
