Gingery Shrimp Salad Bites

Gingery Shrimp Salad Bites

Pick up inexpensive Chinese soup spoons at Asian markets, or serve on rice crackers or in hollowed-out pieces of cucumber. The chives, an optional sixth ingredient, perk up the look but aren’t crucial to the flavor.

  • 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil, divided
  • 8 ounces peeled and deveined medium shrimp
  • 2 teaspoons minced peeled ginger
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp canola mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha
  • 32 1 1/2 inch chive pieces (optional)
  1. Step 1

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons oil; swirl. Add shrimp; sauté 2 minutes. Add ginger and salt; sauté 2 minutes or until done. Cool slightly. Coarsely chop.

    Step 2

    Combine mayonnaise, Sriracha, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil. Add shrimp; toss to coat. Spoon about 1 tablespoon shrimp mixture into each of 16 Chinese soup spoons; top each with 2 chive pieces, if desired.
