Food Recipes Japanese-Style Shrimp Salad 3.6 (10) 5 Reviews Crunchy romaine and cucumbers, juicy shrimp, and a creamy soy-mayo dressing are just a few of the reasons you'll love this delicious dinner salad recipe. It comes together in just 15 minutes, yet packs in tons of flavor. In fact, the dressing might just become your go-to dipping sauce for everything from crudites to grilled salmon. Make sure to gently fold everything together so that the pieces of avocado stay intact. Shopping tip: Cooked shrimp is easy to find and cuts down on prep time for this recipe, but if you want to poach your own, this simple method is a homerun.
