Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 loaf crusty French bread, cubed
1/4 cup store-bought garlic olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup store-bought garlic olive oil
4 oil-packed anchovy fillets
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/2 avocados
1/2 lemon, plus additional lemon juice for the avocado
3 romaine lettuce hearts, trimmed and quartered lengthwise
1 1/2 pounds 16-20 count cooked shrimp, shells and tails removed
1/2 cup Parmesan shavings
1/4 cup fresh flat leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • For the garlicky croutons: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Spread out the bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the garlic oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, tossing the croutons once halfway through, until crisp, about 25 minutes. Set aside and cool completely.
  • For the Caesar dressing: Put the garlic oil in a blender. Add the anchovies, mustard, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. Add the Parmesan and give it a quick blitz. (You want to retain some of the texture of the cheese.)
  • For the salad: Peel and pit the avocados, then slice lengthwise into spears and sprinkle with some lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
  • Arrange the romaine in a line on a platter with the inside of each quarter-head of lettuce facing upward. Drizzle the dressing over the lettuce, allowing it to seep into the layers of leaves. Arrange the shrimp on top, along with the croutons. Scatter the cheese shavings and parsley leaves over the top. Squeeze the lemon half over the whole platter and serve.

GRILLED CAESAR SALAD WITH SHRIMP



Grilled Caesar Salad with Shrimp image

This quickie Caesar dressing has the crucial ingredients that make a Caesar dressing so addictive-anchovies, garlic and a lot of lemon juice and zest-but skips the whisking and raw egg yolks. Slathered on romaine hearts and chunky grilled baguette, it's a unique grilled salad that is a winner on a hot summer day.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 anchovies packed in oil, finely minced
2 small cloves garlic, grated
Zest and juice of 2 lemons (about 2 tablespoons of zest and 1/3 cup juice)
Zest and juice of 2 lemons (about 2 tablespoons of zest and 1/3 cup juice)
Freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces Parmesan, finely grated (about 1 1/2 cups lightly packed)
Kosher salt
3 romaine hearts
1 pound large shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails removed
One 12-inch French baguette, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of the oil, the anchovies, garlic, lemon zest and juice and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper in a mixing bowl. Add 1 cup of the Parmesan and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a large grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat. Cut the romaine in quarters lengthwise, leaving some of the stem attached to each quarter. Brush the cut sides of the romaine with 1/4 cup of the Caesar dressing and place cut-side down on the grill. Grill until the first side is lightly charred, about 1 minute, then turn to the other cut side and cook until lightly charred, about 1 additional minute. Do not crowd the grill, leaving 1/2-inch of space between each quarter of romaine; grill in batches if needed.
  • Toss the shrimp with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Grill the shrimp until lightly charred in spots on both sides and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a mixing bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of the Caesar dressing.
  • Brush the inside of the baguette with 1/4 cup of the Caesar dressing and place cut-side down on the grill. Cook until lightly charred and warmed through, about 2 minutes. Cut each piece of baguette in half lengthwise and then crosswise so you have a total of 8 large breadsticks.
  • Divide the grilled romaine among 4 large plates. Scatter an equal amount of shrimp on each plate. Thin out the remaining dressing with 2 teaspoons water and drizzle over the grilled romaine and shrimp. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and serve with the grilled bread.

Provided by Greg Perez

Categories     Lunch

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 large free-range egg
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
3 fillets anchovies
2 cloves garlic
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, to taste
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 oz whole grain wheat bread, 1 loaf, cut into bite-size cubes
olive oil, to taste
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 pinch kosher salt
1 lb wild-caught shrimp, (about 21 or 25) peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lemon, zested
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
12 cups kale, mixed, stemmed and sliced into ribbons
kosher salt, to taste
1 avocado, pitted and thinly sliced
¾ cup pomegranate seeds
½ cup parmesan cheese, shaved

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: Add the egg, Dijon mustard, anchovy fillets, and garlic to a blender. Blend for about 1 minute, until smooth and creamy. With the blender running, slowly pour in the olive oil and blend until thick and emulsified. Season the dressing to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and quickly pulse to incorporate. Set aside. The dressing can be made ahead. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
  • Make the croutons: In a 3-quart (3 L) mixing bowl, combine the bread, olive oil, and Italian seasoning. Toss to coat the bread cubes.
  • Heat a medium pan over medium heat. Add the bread cubes, in batches if necessary to keep from overcrowding the pan. Toast, tossing occasionally, until crispy and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and season with salt. Set aside. The croutons can be made ahead. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 4 days.
  • Make the shrimp: In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp.
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the shrimp for 2 minutes on each side, until pink and opaque. Remove from the pan.
  • Thoroughly wash and dry the kale. Add to a large bowl and season with salt. Gently massage the kale to break down some of the fibrous texture. Toss with a bit of dressing to coat the leaves, then add more to taste.
  • Add the croutons, shrimp, avocado, pomegranate seeds, and Parmesan. Toss well.
  • Divide between bowls and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh seafood. If you can't find fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good option.
  • To make the dressing, use a good quality mayonnaise. You can also make your own mayonnaise if you have the time.

  • If you are using canned crab meat, be sure to rinse it well before adding it to the salad.
  • To make the croutons, use a good quality bread. You can use a baguette or a loaf of French bread.
  • If you are using a romaine lettuce, be sure to remove the tough outer leaves before adding it to the salad.
