Ingredients
- 1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined (450g)
- ¼ cup mayonnaise (50g)
- 1½ tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1½ tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- ½ lemon juice and zest (1½ tablespoon juice, ½ teaspoon zest)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ cup finely chopped red onion (65g)
- ½ cup finely chopped celery (60g)
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Fill a large bowl with ice water.
- Add the shrimp to the boiling water and cook until opaque and cooked through about 2 minutes. Drain well, then transfer the shrimp to the ice bath. Let stand for 2 minutes. Drain well again.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, dill, lemon, salt, and pepper. Add the cooled shrimp, onion, and celery. Toss to combine. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for your shrimp salad. Since the ingredients list is short, it will make a difference in the taste and overall quality of the recipe.
- Be careful not to overcook the shrimp! Have the ice bath ready, as overcooking shrimp can ruin the texture. You want to avoid rubbery or tough shrimp in the salad.
- Try to dice the onion and celery as uniformly as possible so you get a bite of everything with each spoonful.
- Don’t skip chilling the salad. Refrigerating the salad helps to blend the flavors and leads to a more refreshing bite.
- Shrimp salad is delicious on its own but is also great served over a bed of lettuce, with crackers, in a sandwich, or in a wrap.
- You can buy deveined and peeled shrimp to save time.
