Ingredients
For the Dressing:
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- ½ cup plain yogurt or sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
For the Salad:
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound raw shrimp peeled and deveined
- Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
- 1-2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup celery finely diced
- ½ red onion finely minced
- 1 cup frozen green peas thawed
Instructions
- Heat the 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick pan and add the 1 pound raw shrimp in a single layer.
- Season with Kosher salt and ground pepper and cook for 2-4 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Set aside in a salad bowl and allow them to cool.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl add all the dressing ingredients (2 tbsp lemon juice, ½ cup plain yogurt or sour cream, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1-2 garlic cloves1 tablespoon chopped parsley, and Kosher salt and ground pepper) and mix well to combine.
- To the salad bowl, with the shrimp, add finely diced 1 cup celery, minced ½ red onion and 1 cup frozen green peas.
- Add in the yogurt dressing, toss together, and serve.
Notes
- Use raw shrimp instead of cooked shrimp. The texture and flavor will be so much better.
- You may use any other oil instead of olive oil.
- Peas: if you don't like peas, use other veggies of choice. You may also skip it completely.
- Yogurt: I used plain yogurt instead of mayonnaise. Sour cream will also work. For a non-dairy option, you can use dairy-free yogurt.
- It is best to use fresh garlic cloves instead of garlic powder.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days
