Curried Shrimp Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the dressing: Cut the top and bottom from an orange so it sits flat. Working from the top down, cut away the peel and pith to expose the flesh. Cut out the orange segments, leaving the membrane behind. Squeeze any juice from the membrane into a large bowl. Repeat with the remaining orange. You should have about 1/4 cup juice. Reserve the segments.
• Whisk the cream, vinegar, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper into the orange juice. While whisking, pour in the olive oil in a slow, steady stream to make a creamy, slightly thick dressing. Chill while you make the salad.
• For the salad: Sprinkle the shrimp with the Old Bay and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the shrimp in two batches until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per batch. Remove to a plate to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Combine the shrimp, reserved orange segments, avocado, cucumber and fennel in the bowl with the dressing and toss gently. Mound the lettuce on a platter or individual plates and top with the salad. Garnish with fennel fronds.

Steps:

• Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan, and cook the onion and celery over medium heat until tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the flour, salt, and curry powder until smooth; let cook for a minute or two. Gradually whisk in the milk, and bring almost to a boil, whisking constantly until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in sugar, lemon juice, and 1/2 cup of Cheddar cheese; whisk until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.
• Spread the cooked rice out into the prepared baking dish, and top with the cooked shrimp in an even layer. Cover the shrimp with the cheese sauce; push the tines of a fork all over the casserole between the shrimp to allow the sauce to soak into the rice. Top the casserole with the remaining Cheddar cheese, and garnish with paprika.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and browned, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the shrimp, water chestnuts, celery and onions. In a small bowl, combine the Miracle Whip, soy sauce and curry powder. Stir into shrimp mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve in a lettuce-lined bowl. Sprinkle;with almonds.

Steps:

• Cook the shrimp and rice (not together).
• Chop celery.
• Toast the slivered almonds on a baking sheet in your oven.
• Set aside half the slivered almonds.
• When everything has cooled, mix together and add your dash of garlic salt.
• Refrigerate until serving day (1-2 days later).
• Serve on butter lettuce.
• Sprinkle with reserved slivered almonds.

Steps:

• Combine the rice, vegetable stock and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Stir in the apricots and shallot during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
• Spread the rice in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheet to cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together the vinegar, curry powder, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until combined.
• Transfer the cooled rice to a serving bowl. Add the desired amount of the vinaigrette, then the arugula, pine nuts and mint, and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat grill until very hot. Place rice and 1 3/4 cups water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, about 20 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes, fluff with a fork, and let cool.
• Grate zest from 1 lemon into a large bowl; squeeze both lemons to yield 6 tablespoons juice. Add to the bowl, then add rice, mint, cilantro, parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper; toss to combine.
• Leaving tails intact, peel and devein shrimp; transfer to a medium bowl. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and curry powder. Toss until shrimp are well coated. Thread shrimp onto skewers, and place on hot grill. Cook until pink and opaque; serve over rice.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first five ingredients; toss gently. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce and seasonings; shake well. Add to shrimp mixture; toss. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Serve on lettuce; garnish with tomatoes if desired.

• Defrost shrimp according to package directions.
• Drain thoroughly and remove tails.
