Mexican street corn salad with shrimp - Modified for Misty ^_^
loading...
Takes about 30 mins from start to finish.
Servings: 4
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1lb shelled and de-veined shrimp. (I usually get 1.25lb shell-on white shrimp from WFM, and I clean them at your home but I know you hate shellllls).
- 1lb package of frozen fire roasted corn (or a mix of fire roasted and regular corn). I normally use the one from the Burbank WFM.
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Garlic and onion powder, dash each
- Salt and white pepper (as per your taste)
- subheading: For the dressing:
- 3 to 4 Tbl lime juice (from 1 lime), start with 3 Tbl
- 1Tbl sour cream sauce
- 1 Tbl mayonnaise
- 2 Tbl parmesan
- ½ small red bell pepper, diced
- 1 Tbl chive, chopped (OPT, but I normally use it)
- 1 Tbl parsley, chopped (OPT, I normally add some parsley for you instead of cilantro but feel free to omit)
- subheading: Toppings:
- ½ avocado, diced
- ¼ cup Cojita (or can omit, you like it with and without)
- subheading: If you're sharing with Paul, he can add the following:
- 1 chopped jalapeno
- ¼ cup cilantro
- A few dashes of paprika and cayenne
Steps
- Cut and prep all your ingredients.
- Lightly season the shrimp with some salt and white pepper and 1 Tbl of olive oil. I also like to add 2 tsp of minced garlic in this mix but feel free to omit if you don't feel like it.
- Evenly place the seasoned shrimp on an aluminum-foil-lined large oven sheet. Make sure to leave a little bit of space between the shrimp.
- Place a rack about 6 inches before the broiler. Set your broiler to high. After about 5 mins, the shrimp is ready to go in. The amount of time that the shrimp takes to be cooked varies a little bit but I always put a TIMER FOR 5 mins to check on the shrimp then. If they don't look ready, give it another minute. It's better not to overcook the shrimp otherwise they can get a bit chewy or hard to eat. You'll know they're ready when they are white and no longer translucent/pink. Leave them to cool. I normally move them somewhere cooler like your dining table so that they don't continue cooking in a warm environment like the kitchen.
- Heat 1 Tbl of olive oil in a large cast iron over high heat. Give it 2 mins to get hot.
- Once hot, add corn and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes, give it a stir only once or twice because leaving it alone will allow it to caramelize a little and become sweeter (like you, bahahaha).
- Add the minced garlic, dash of garlic and onion powder, salt and white pepper. Give it a stir and leave it alone for another minute.
- Turn the heat off and leave the corn to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk all dressing ingredients.
- Toss the corn in it, mix well. Taste, adjust seasonings or add more lime juice if desired!
- When you're ready to eat, transfer and divide the corn mix into bowls, top with shrimp and the rest of the toppings (cojita, avocado, extra parsley etc).
- ENJOY MISTY! I LOVE YOU ^_^
