Delicious Asparagus and Shrimp Salad with garlic, parsley, olive oil, and lemon dressing.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound asparagus, woody stem ends removed
  • 1/2 pound pink salad shrimp, cooked, shelled
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced (1/2 teaspoon to 1 1/2 teaspoons, depending on how much you like fresh garlic)
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice (more to taste)
  • 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
  • Cook the asparagus: In a pot of salted boiling water, cook the asparagus for 3 minutes. Quickly transfer the asparagus to a bowl of ice water to cool.
  • Add the shrimp to the pot of boiling water. For pre-cooked shrimp, warm them for 30 seconds only. For uncooked shrimp, boil for 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl.
  • Thinly slice the asparagus spears on the diagonal, cutting until you are near the tip. Remove the asparagus tips in one piece for a beautiful presentation.
  • Combine all ingredients: Place the asparagus and shrimp in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the lemon juice to your preference. Enjoy these recipes for Skillet Shrimp and Asparagus, Asparagus Salad with Broccolini and Radishes, and Quinoa Salad with Shrimp and Asparagus.
