How to Make Saturday Night Shrimp Salad
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- In a bowl, toss shrimp with the juice of half the lemon (about 1 tablespoon), vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through.
- Remove shrimp from grill and let cool to room temperature.
- Blanch carrots and green beans in boiling salted water for 1 minute. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain well and set aside.
- Tear or slice field greens into thin strips.
- In a small bowl, whisk together white wine vinegar, the juice of the remaining lemon half, and minced shallot. Let stand for 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and walnut oil with the vinegar mixture.
- Add the cooled shrimp, blanched vegetables, chopped egg, and fresh herbs to the large bowl. Gently toss with half of the vinaigrette.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the remaining vinaigrette if needed, tossing gently to combine.
- Sprinkle with toasted hazelnuts and serve immediately.
