Instructions
 

  • DRESSING:
  • Combine peanut butter, coconut milk, coconut oil, lime juice, sesame oil, salt, pepper and honey in a food processor or blender. Blend/process until well mixed.
  • Add in siracha, (quantity to taste, I used 2 Tbsp because I like spicy).
  • If dressing is too thick, slowly stream in water as you blend/process.
  • Set aside.
  • SHRIMP:
  • Heat sauté/fry pan on medium heat. Add coconut oil.
  • When fully heated add garlic, ginger and jalapeño, sauté for 30 seconds to flavor the oil.
  • Add the shrimp, cook for about 3 minutes each side or until done, shrimp should be opaque.
  • Note* ginger mixture might stick to shrimp, this is perfectly fine.
  • Set aside.
  • SALAD:
  • Divide and arrange in two bowls all the vegetables.
  • Arrange shrimp on top.
  • Drizzle dressing over each salad.
  • Sprinkle with cilantro.
  • Sprinkle with dried coconut (optional)

Notes

Spring onions would be a wonderful addition to this salad. (I'm allergic to onions so you won't see them in my recipes).
Refrigerate any left over dressing.
