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.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. It's also very versatile - you can add other vegetables or fruits, or change the type of dressing.

I made this salad exactly as the recipe said and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more salt and pepper to the dressing.
