Time 33m

Yield 8 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (30-40 per pound)
1/4 cup tequila
2 teaspoons orange zest, freshly grated
1 teaspoon lime zest, freshly grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup red onion, thinly slivered
4 cups romaine lettuce, torn into pieces
2 medium endives, cored and torn into pieces (2 cups)
1 orange, peeled and cut into segments
2 ripe Hass avocadoes, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
lime wedge
6 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Toss shrimp, tequila, orange zest, lime zest and salt in a medium bowl. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Place onion in a small bowl, cover with cold water and some ice; let stand for 10 minutes, or until ready to use.
  • Meanwhile, make Creamy Lime-Chile Dressing by whisking all dressing ingredients together.
  • Toss romaine, endive, orange segments and the drained onion in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Divide among 4 plates. Toss avocados with lime juice and divide among the salads.
  • Drain the shrimp, reserving the marinade. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sauté until pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide among the salads.
  • Add the reserved marinade to the pan and bring to a boil, stirring; then spoon over shrimp.
  • Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
  • Note: dressing will keep covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks - also great as a Caesar salad dressing on romaine with croutons and Parmesan shavings.

MARGARITA SHRIMP SALAD



Margarita Shrimp Salad image

This is one of our favorite summer salads- it makes a lovely "light" dinner meal and you don't have to heat up the kitchen! I've also used a combination of red, green and yellow bell peppers to add more color to the salad. Prep time does not include marinating time. Originally from "Savor the Southwest" cookbook.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 serrano chili, stemmed, seeded, and finely diced
1/3 cup tequila
2 tablespoons triple sec or 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (16-20 count per pound)
1/4 cup olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
vegetable oil, for frying tortillas
4 (6 inch) corn tortillas, cut into julienne
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tomatoes, cored, seeded, and diced
1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
6 cups torn romaine lettuce leaves, washed and thoroughly dried

Steps:

  • Shrimp: Combine the cilantro, garlic, chili, tequila, triple sec, lime juice and cumin in a nonreactive bowl.
  • Add the shrimp, turn to coat, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Drain the shrimp and reserve the marinade.
  • In a small saucepan over high heat, bring the reserved marinade to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until reduced by half.
  • Remove from heat, transfer to a small bowl, and cool.
  • Whisk in the olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Prepare a barbeque grill or preheat a broiler (I prefer to BBQ the shrimp).
  • Grill or broil the shrimp until just pink, about 1 minute per side; keep warm.
  • Salad: Fill a small skillet with oil to a depth of about 1 inch and place over medium heat.
  • When oil is about 375°, fry the tortilla strips in batches until light brown and crisp; drain well on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle with chili powder while still warm.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the tomato, bell pepper and lettuce.
  • Toss with enough of the marinade/oil dressing to coat lightly and divide among 4 large plates or shallow bowls.
  • Top with the grilled shrimp and tortilla strips and serve immediately.

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 tablespoon kosher salt, divided, plus 1 teaspoon
1 lb elbow macaroni
2 cups mayonnaise
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 medium carrots, shredded
2 scallions, thinly sliced
¼ cup buttermilk
1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ cups margarita mix
4 tablespoons blanco tequila, divided
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 lime, zested
Lime wedge, for serving
2 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
¼ cup unsweetend coconut milk, plus 2 tablespoons for serving
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 lime, juiced
2 bunches kale, stems discarded, leaves roughly chopped
4 oz snow peas, ends trimmed, halved crosswise
¼ cup unsweetened toasted coconut flakes, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the macaroni salad: Bring 3 quarts of water to boil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the macaroni. Cook al dente according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and return to the Dutch oven. Cool for 5 minutes.
  • Add the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon of kosher salt to the pasta fold to thoroughly combine. Set aside to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Marinate the margarita shrimp: Add the shrimp and kosher salt to a large bowl. Toss to combine. Pour the margarita mix over top. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes while you prepare the braised greens.
  • Make the braised coconut greens: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the garlic and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant and just starting to soften.
  • Add ¼ cup of coconut milk plus the sugar and lime juice to the saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
  • Add the kale leaves and snow peas, and season again with salt and pepper. Cover the saucepan and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the leaves are wilted and soft and the snow peas are tender.
  • Cook the shrimp: Pour the marinade liquid into a 10-inch skillet, leaving the shrimp in the bowl. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by two-thirds to about ½ cup.
  • Add the shrimp and 2 tablespoons of tequila to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, for about 3 minutes, until the shrimp are bright pink and opaque.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of tequila plus the cilantro and lime zest. Simmer for about 1 minute, tossing the shrimp to thoroughly coat. Serve immediately alongside the macaroni salad and braised greens.
  • Just before serving, fold in the carrots, scallions, and buttermilk into the cooled macaroni salad. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut milk to the greens and garnish with toasted coconut flakes.
  • Enjoy!
