Ingredients
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp
Kosher salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons white miso
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
5 ounces mixed greens
1 cup snow peas, trimmed and cut into thin strips
4 radishes, cut into thin matchsticks
2 carrots, cut into thin matchsticks
4 scallions, thinly sliced
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together white miso and rice vinegar until smooth and combined. Set the dressing aside.
Pat the raw shrimp dry with paper towels and season generously with kosher salt and black pepper.
Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the hot oil and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until opaque throughout and the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Transfer to a plate.
Arrange the mixed greens in a large serving bowl or on individual plates.
Top the greens with the snow pea strips, radish matchsticks, carrot matchsticks, and sliced scallions.
Divide the cooked shrimp evenly among the salads.
Drizzle the miso dressing over each salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
Comments
This recipe plays well to North Carolina's coastal access to fresh shrimp and the vegetables are all standard supermarket finds at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, or Walmart with no specialty stops required. At roughly $3.50 to $4.50 per serving, the cost breaks down cleanly: shrimp drives the price, miso paste is inexpensive per portion, and the greens and vegetables are bargain bins. The stated 30 minutes is honest for a reader comfortable with shrimp; the dressing whisks together in two minutes and salad assembly is straightforward. It's a same-night dish that doesn't reheat well, so plan to eat it fresh, and while it's light rather than a heavy family meal, it works as a weeknight dinner for four without fussing or constant attention.
