photo-55I’m not a frequent shrimp eater, but it sounded good last night, so I whipped up a little Asian-inspried shrimp salad. It hit the spot and left me satisfied for the rest of the night.

Salad Ingredients:

  • Fresh Cooked Shrimp
  • Chopped Romaine Lettuce
  • Half Package of Broccoli Slaw Mix (Shredded Green and Red Cabbage)
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Green Onion
  • Red Onion
  • Red Bell Pepper
  • Shredded Carrot
  • Edamame
  • Crispy Wonton Noodles

Ginger-Sesame Dressing/Marinade Ingredients:

  • 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
  • 3 tbps. Balsamic Vinegar
  • 2 tbsps. Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 2 Cloves Fresh Minced Garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. Fresh Minced Ginger
  • 1 tbsp. Honey
  • 1 tsp. Toasted Sesame Oil
  • Pepper to Taste

I just whisked ingredients together and poured half of the dressing/marinade over the shrimp and let sit for about 20 minutes to soak in all the great flavor. Once marinaded, I grilled for about a minute or two on each side until there was a nice golden crust.

Add shrimp over chopped veggies, add the rest of the dressing and top with some crispy wontons for a nice crunch.

Enjoy!
