Shrimp Remoulade

This is a great and super easy first course that will bring accolades galore.

 

• 2 cups mayonnaise (not salad dressing)
• 1 tbsp. prepared mustard
• pinch of black pepper
• 1/2 cup finely chopped dill pickle
• 1 hard cooked egg, chopped
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tbsp. drained capers
• 1 tbsp. chopped fresh tarragon
• 1 tbsp. chopped chervil
• 1 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 lbs. large cooked and cleaned shrimp, chilled
• shredded lettuce

 

In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard and pepper and mix really well. Stir in the dill, egg, garlic, capers, tarragon, chervil and parsley and refrigerate, covered, for about 4 hours.

To serve on individual plates, pile mounds of shredded lettuce, add about 6 shrimp per mound and generously cover with sauce.

Add a warm dinner roll, fresh butter and YUM!
