How to Make Amazing Shrimp Louie Salad
- **Prepare Hard-Boiled Eggs:** Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan with about 1/4 inch of water. Bring to a boil. Add 3-6 large eggs to the steamer basket, cover, and steam for exactly 12 minutes. Immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cool, peel and slice.
- **Chill the Salad Bowl:** Place your salad bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes before assembling the salad to keep everything perfectly chilled.
- **Prep Ingredients:** While the eggs are cooling, prepare all remaining ingredients. Ensure everything is well-chilled.
- **Assemble the Salad:** Line the chilled bowl with your lettuce. Arrange cucumber slices, halved cherry or grape tomatoes, blanched asparagus spears (approx. 6-8 spears per serving), and sliced black olives artfully on top of the lettuce.
- **Add Shrimp:** Gently place cooked shrimp (approximately 10-12 large shrimp per serving) over the vegetables.
- **Serve:** Serve immediately with your favorite creamy Louie dressing on the side, allowing each diner to customize their serving.
- **Louie Dressing (Optional):** [Insert your favorite creamy Louie dressing recipe here, or use a store-bought version.]
