Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 200 g Cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 4 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp Fresh basil leaves (chopped)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 unit Lemon (juiced)
- 100 g Mixed greens or arugula (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, chopped basil, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and the juice of one lemon until well combined to make the tomato vinaigrette.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and sauté for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
While the shrimp is cooling, add the halved cherry tomatoes to the vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
Combine the cooked shrimp with the tomato vinaigrette mixture, ensuring the shrimp is well-coated.
Serve the shrimp tomato vinaigrette over a bed of mixed greens or arugula, if desired, for a fresh and light presentation.
Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours if served chilled.
