Ingredients
- 1 pound medium shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 lemon quartered
- 1/2 cup celery finely diced
- 3 tablespoons red onion minced
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped, plus more for garnish
Instructions
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the quartered lemon.
- Add the shrimp to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes or until pink and opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Drain the shrimp then pat dry.
- Place the shrimp, celery, red onion, lemon juice, salt, pepper, mayonnaise, mustard and dill in a bowl. Toss gently to coat.
- Garnish with additional fresh dill and serve, or cover and refrigerate for later use.
Notes
- I use 31-40 count shrimp for this recipe because they're bite sized. If you prefer, you can use larger shrimp, and serve them whole or cut into pieces.
- You can use pre-cooked shrimp in this recipe. If you decide to use pre-cooked shrimp, you do not need to boil them, just make sure the shrimp are thawed if frozen and proceed with the rest of the recipe.
- This salad will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
