Shrimp Rolls Recipe
Description
In this recipe, peeled and deveined shrimp are sautéed briefly in butter with seasoning including smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cooking is carefully timed to avoid overcooking, preserving a firm and juicy bite. After cooling, the shrimp are chopped and mixed with crunchy celery, finely diced pickles, fresh green onion, dill, and a creamy dressing of mayonnaise and Greek yogurt. The filling balances rich, tangy, and slightly smoky notes.
Portioning the filling into hot dog or brioche buns creates a handheld meal best enjoyed fresh. The use of smoked paprika sprinkled on top adds a subtle smoky flavor and visual appeal. Accompanying the rolls with lemon wedges brightens the flavors and adds acidity. Serving with fries or a light salad rounds out the meal.
Preparation involves simple cooking and mixing steps, making this an approachable recipe for home cooks looking for a seafood sandwich with interesting textures and fresh components.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 2 pounds Shrimp peeled and deveined, if frozen thaw them first, fresh
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 6 celery chopped, stalks
- lemon juice of 1 large
- 2 tablespoons green onion chopped
- 3 tablespoons pickles very finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon dill diced
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
To serve:
- 8 hot dog buns
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Instructions
Cook the shrimp:
- Place a large skillet, over medium-high heat. Add butter and melt it.
- Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Don't overcook it or it will be tough and rubbery. If it is not translucent anymore, it's done!
- Using a slotted spoon, scoop out the shrimp and place it in a large bowl. Cool a bit and after that, cover it with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.
Combine:
- Once shrimp has relatively cooled, chop it and add it back to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Stir until all ingredients are well coated. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve:
- Scoop the filling into regular or brioche hot dog buns and sprinkle smoked paprika on top. If you want, add some chopped chives or green onions on top.
- Serve with lemon wedges on the side and french fries or a light salad.
