Description
A delightful recipe for Shrimp Rolls featuring a creamy New England-style dressing, perfect for a light meal or appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 New England-style hot dog buns
- Butter, for toasting buns
- Lettuce leaves, for serving
Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Drain and transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, chop the shrimp into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill, chives, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the dressing.
- Gently fold the chopped shrimp into the dressing until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- While the shrimp mixture chills, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add butter to the skillet and toast the hot dog buns until golden brown on both sides.
- To assemble, place a lettuce leaf in each toasted bun and generously fill with the shrimp mixture. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the dressing.
- Substitute the shrimp with crab meat for a delicious crab roll variation.
