Ingredients

Servings

For the Dressing:

  • 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

Instructions

  1. Heat the 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick pan and add the 1 pound raw shrimp in a single layer.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. To the salad bowl, with the shrimp, add finely diced 1 cup celery, minced ½ red onion and 1 cup frozen green peas.
  5. 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
