Ingredients
- 2 pounds cooked shrimp
- 2 tsp of Old Bay seasoning
- 2 cups of mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper
- 4 tbsp of lemon juice
- 2 cups of chopped celery.
Instructions
- Boil the shrimp in seasoned water until they turn opaque and fully cooked, about 3 minutes.
- Quickly cool the cooked shrimp in an ice bath and then drain them using a colander.
- Whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to create the dressing.
- Add the cooled shrimp and chopped celery to the dressing. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
- Your delicious shrimp salad is ready to enjoy, either chilled or at room temperature. Savor the flavors of the sea and the freshness of celery.
Notes
- Make sure to use fresh or frozen shrimp that has not been previously cooked. This will ensure the dish tastes its best.
- If possible, buy wild-caught shrimp as they tend to have the best flavor and texture.
- For a lighter version of the salad, you can replace some of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
- Expand the crunch of the salad by adding other crunchy vegetables such as carrots or bell peppers.
- For extra zing, add a dash of hot sauce to your dressing.
- Make this salad ahead and let it sit overnight in the fridge for maximum flavor.
