How to Make Shrimp Salad With Peas
- Cook shrimp: In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add 1/2 pound of shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until pink and opaque. Immediately transfer shrimp to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel and devein the shrimp, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Prepare the peas: If using frozen peas, thaw them completely. If using fresh peas, shell them and blanch for 1-2 minutes in boiling water then immediately plunge into ice water to retain their vibrant green color.
- Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked shrimp, 1 cup of thawed or blanched peas, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well.
- Chill and serve: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled on bread, crackers, or lettuce cups.
