SPINACH SALAD WITH SHRIMP AND WARM BACON DRESSING RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Spinach Salad with Shrimp and Warm Bacon Dressing Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by CarolineNGa

Number Of Ingredients 15

SALAD:
8 cups fresh, washed baby spinach, dried really well
3 boiled eggs, sliced
4 pieces of cooked bacon, crumbled
1/2 red onion, sliced very thin
SHRIMP:
1 pound of fresh, peeled and deveined shrimp
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
DRESSING:
3 tablespoons of bacon drippings
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, you can substitute cider vinegar if needed
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1/3 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • GRILL THE SHRIMP: Place grill pan on grill and set burners to high. Sprinkle shrimp with Old Bay seasoning and toss to coat. Place shrimp on grill pan. Grill shrimp 2-3 minutes per side. They will be firm and white when fully cooked-check often, being careful not to overcook. MAKE THE DRESSING: In a small bowl, mix vinegar, sugar, honey and mustard. Heat bacon drippings in sauce pan on low. When drippings are warm, slowly pour in the vinegar mixture. Whisk all ingredients together until mixed well. Keep whisking on low temp til the dressing is emulsified. PREPARE THE SALAD: Place spinach on large platter. Arrange the grilled shrimp,crumbled bacon, and onion on top of greens. Gently drizzle with warm dressing. Add egg slices. Toss gently to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest shrimp possible. Fresh shrimp should have a firm texture and a slightly briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and color to your salad. Some good options include cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and avocado.
  • Make a flavorful dressing. A simple vinaigrette is a good option, but you can also try a more complex dressing, such as a citrus-herb vinaigrette or a creamy avocado dressing.
  • Serve the salad immediately. Warm shrimp salad is best when served immediately after it is made. The shrimp will start to cool and become tough if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Warm shrimp salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
