Salad: Lemon Lime Shrimp Salad

Source of Recipe

internet


List of Ingredients

1 clove garlic
3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp hoisin sauce (Chinese sauce-- this is an off plan ingredient)
1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
Pinch of white pepper

1 pound medium shrimp, peeled
1 medium head cabbage, grated
1 carrot, grated
1 cup chopped watercress
2 ripe red tomatoes, quartered

1/3 cup fresh lime juice
2 Tbsp honey (or use splenda to taste)

2 Tbsp chopped, fresh basil leaves
Additional crushed red pepper flakes (optional)


Recipe

1. In a blender, combine the garlic clove, lemon juice, hoisin sauce, red pepper flakes and white pepper. Puree until smooth. Marinate the shrimp in the puree for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together the lime juice, honey and toss with the cabbage, carrot, and watercress.

2. Cook the shrimp in a non-stick pan with the marinade for 2 to 3 minutes -- it's done when it turns pink. Mound the shrimp in the middle of the salad and place the quartered tomatoes around the edges of the bowl. Garnish with basil, additional red pepper flakes, if desired.
