Shrimp and avocado salad with remoulade dressing is a classic combination of flavors and textures that is perfect for a summer meal or party appetizer. The shrimp are cooked until tender and juicy, and the avocado adds a creamy richness to the salad. The remoulade dressing is a tangy and flavorful sauce that ties all of the ingredients together. This dish is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. You can use different types of shrimp, such as cooked shrimp, grilled shrimp, or even smoked shrimp. You can also add other ingredients to the salad, such as chopped cucumber, red onion, or bell pepper. And if you don't have any remoulade dressing on hand, you can easily make your own with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and chopped pickles.

SHRIMP AND AVOCADO SALAD WITH REMOULADE DRESSING
Steps:
- To make the remoulade dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, red pepper sauce, garlic, green onion, and parsley. Taste and add salt if needed. To make the shrimp for the salad, bring a 3-quart saucepan filled with water to a boil. Add the the shrimp and the salt. Cook the shrimp until pink, about 2 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water. To assemble the salad, in a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked shrimp with the lettuce, celery, and avocado. You can either serve the salad dressed by adding the remoulade to the mixing bowl and tossing, or you can evenly divide the salad onto 4 plates or into 4 bowls, and serve with the dressing on the side. I also like to serve the salad with lemon wedges for an added bit of brightness.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and ripe ingredients. This will ensure that your salad is flavorful and delicious.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp only takes a few minutes to cook, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough and rubbery.
- Use a light hand with the dressing. You don't want to overpower the delicate flavors of the shrimp and avocado.
- Serve the salad immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh.
Conclusion:
Shrimp and avocado salad with remoulade dressing is a light, refreshing, and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy salad to make, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
