How to Make Bless Your Hearts Of Palm Salad With Shrimp

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup chicken broth, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon capers (drained), 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 finely minced shallot, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
  2. Hard-boil 2 large eggs. Once cool, peel and finely chop the egg whites and yolks separately.
  3. Rinse 1 (14-ounce) can hearts of palm under cold water and drain. Cut in half lengthwise (optional).
  4. Add the hearts of palm to the dressing and gently toss to coat. Marinate for 10-15 minutes.

  6. Remove shrimp from pan and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  7. Arrange one large lettuce leaf on each salad plate.
  8. Using a slotted spoon, divide the marinated hearts of palm evenly among the plates.
  9. Add 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley to the remaining dressing in the bowl. Add the cooked shrimp and gently toss to combine.
  10. Pit, peel, and thinly slice 1 ripe avocado.
  11. Arrange avocado slices on top of the hearts of palm.
  12. Spoon the shrimp and dressing mixture evenly over the hearts of palm and avocado.
  13. Sprinkle each serving with the chopped egg whites, then the yolks.
  14. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
