Shrimp And Noodle Salad With Ginger Dressing Recipes

VIETNAMESE GARLIC SHRIMP (PRAWN) NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the Garlic Shrimp ingredients in a small bowl and set aside for 10 minutes.
• Combine the Dressing ingredients in a small jar, give it a shake then set aside for 10 minutes.
• Heat a skillet / fry pan over high heat. Add the shrimp, scraping in the olive oil and garlic from the sides of the bowl. Cook for 2 minutes, or until browned and the shrimp is just cooked through. (Note 2)
• Remove the prawns from the skillet onto a plate.
• Prepare the vermicelli noodles according to the packet directions. I like to just soak them in hot tap water for a few minutes, this ensures they don't overcook. Then drain the noodles.
• Arrange the noodles and remaining Salad ingredients on a large plate (like the photo) or toss together in a bowl. Top with prawns (warm or at room temperature). Drizzle over the Dressing (or toss through), or you can serve the Dressing on the side.
• Serve immediately.

ASIAN SHRIMP SALAD WITH GINGER SESAME DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss shrimp with olive oil on a large baking sheet and bake for about 5 to 7 minutes, until shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove from oven and set aside.
• To make the ginger sesame dressing, combine all ingredients in a small jar with a sealed lid and shake well until combined. I also use this jar to store any extra dressing to use for the week.
• To make the sauce for the shrimp, whisk together chili paste, 3 tablespoons of the ginger sesame dressing and lime juice. Add cooked shrimp and toss to combine; set aside.
• For the salad, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, snap peas, cilantro and mint in a large bowl and toss with the extra ginger sesame dressing. Top with cooked shrimp and enjoy!
• If making this salad for lunches, store the dressing in a sealed jar and drizzle over salad just before eating so salad stays fresh.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, mustard, honey and pepper. Once these are thoroughly combined, add the oil in a steady stream, whisking constantly. When all of the oil is incorporated into the dressing, pour into a glass jar and chill until serving.
