Time 1h20m

Yield 4 large servings or 6 small servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup farro (emmer wheat)
Sea salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds fresh shrimp, deveined, thoroughly rinsed and patted dry
Juice of 1/2 lime
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
1/2 lemon, juiced, seeds removed
One 15-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed well
1 bunch watercress, tough stems removed

Steps:

  • Soak the farro in warm water for about 20 minutes. Drain and rinse well. Pour into a medium saucepan with enough water to cover by 1 inch. Cover the pot and bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. Add a pinch of salt and cook for about 30 minutes. The farro should be soft but have a slight chew to it. Drain to remove excess water, and then transfer to a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Set aside.

  • Make the salad dressing by combining the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, the mint, lemon juice and some salt and pepper in a small jar. Cover and shake to combine.
  • Toss together the farro, beans and watercress in a large bowl with half of the dressing. Season with salt and pepper. To plate, transfer the salad to a large platter and top with the shrimp. Serve with the remaining dressing on the side.

WARM SHRIMP AND ENDIVE SALAD



Warm Shrimp and Endive Salad image

Categories     Salad     Herb     Mustard     Shellfish     Tomato     Appetizer     Sauté     Picnic     Low Cal     Seafood     Shrimp     Summer     Endive     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium vine-ripened tomato
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 16)
4 medium Belgian endives
1/2 cup house vinaigrette
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons coarse-grained mustard
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
fine sea salt
freshly ground white pepper
1 tablespoon corn oil
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Peel and seed tomato and cut into 1/4-inch dice. In a dry small heavy skillet toast sesame seeds over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 3 minutes. Shell and devein shrimp.
  • Trim top 1 1/4 inches from each endive and separate leaves, discarding small inner core. With a sharp knife cut away soft yellow edges of each leaf (save trimmings for another use), leaving only firm white centers, and cut centers lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
  • In a small bowl whisk together vinaigrette and mustards. In a bowl combine endives, tomato, sesame seeds, soy sauce, lemon juice, and 3 tablespoons mustard vinaigrette, tossing to coat, and season with sea salt and white pepper.
  • Season shrimp with sea salt and white pepper. In a large heavy nonstick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until just smoking. Add shrimp in one layer and sauté until undersides are golden brown, about 1 minute. Turn shrimp over and sauté until just cooked through, about 30 seconds.
  • Divide shrimp among 4 plates, mounding them. Add 5 teaspoons sliced cilantro to endive mixture, tossing to mix, and mound mixture over shrimp. Garnish salads with remaining teaspoon cilantro.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • If you can't find endive, you can substitute another type of leafy green, such as romaine lettuce or arugula.
  • To save time, you can cook the shrimp ahead of time and chill them until ready to serve.
  • If you don't have a steamer basket, you can steam the shrimp in a colander set over a pot of boiling water.
  • To make the dressing, you can use either olive oil or avocado oil. If you want a tangier dressing, you can add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar.
  • Serve the salad immediately, while the shrimp are still warm.

Conclusion:

Shrimp endive and watercress salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals, and it is also low in calories and fat. The combination of shrimp, endive, and watercress is refreshing and flavorful, and the dressing adds a tangy touch. This salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
