Made with tender shrimp, rich mayo, crisp celery, bright onion, and fresh herbs. It's a breeze to prepare and always sure to satisfy those seafood cravings!
6Lettuce leaves(romaine, butter lettuce, or iceberg)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile fill a large bowl with ice water and set aside.
Once water is boiling add shrimp and let cook until pink and opaque throughout, about 2 - 3 minutes (I like to test temp of inside of one to 145 degrees on an instant read food thermometer to not overcook it).
Drain shrimp then transfer to bowl of ice water and submerge. Let cool about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile in a medium mixing bowl stir together mayonnaise, lemon juice, lemon zest, celery, red onion, parsley, and dill.
Drain shrimp, remove peels and tails, then dab dry.
Transfer shrimp to mayo mixture, toss to evenly coat while seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Serve in buns with lettuce if desired and finish with paprika/cayenne pepper to taste.
Or alternately you can just serve in lettuce leaves and double them up if desired (note that omitting buns this will reduce the calorie estimate by 130 calories per serving).
Notes
*Large or extra large shrimp will work well too, just once they are cooked and cooled chop them into smaller pieces.
