This Miso Shrimp Salad pairs savory-sweet miso sesame shrimp with a crunchy edamame cabbage slaw for an easy, high-protein, high-fiber dinner.
Equipment
- Grill Pan grill or skillet
Ingredients
Sesame Ginger Dressing
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce ( or gluten-free tamari)
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger ( or ginger paste)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Miso Sesame Grilled Shrimp
- 1 ¼ pounds jumbo shrimp (peeled and deveined (tails removed))
- 2 tablespoons white miso paste
- 1 teaspoon black and white sesame seeds (for garnish)
Edamame Cabbage Salad
- 2 cups shredded green cabbage
- 2 cups shredded purple cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup frozen shelled edamame (thawed)
- 1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
- 4 scallions (thinly sliced and divided)
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- ⅓ cup sliced roasted almonds
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, ginger, garlic, honey, and Dijon until smooth.
- Transfer ¼ cup of the dressing to a mini blender or separate large bowl and whisk in the miso paste until smooth and combined. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate while you prepare the salad, at least 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, carrots, edamame, bell pepper, half of the scallions, and cilantro. Toss with the dressing.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat. If grilling outdoors, a grill basket is great. If using a grill pan, grill the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until pink and just cooked through. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Divide the salad among four plates or shallow bowls and top with the grilled shrimp, remaining scallions and almonds.
Notes
Don't like shrimp? This would also work with bite-sized chunks of chicken thighs, or salmon.
