  • 1/2 lb shrimp peeled, cleaned and deveined.
  • 2 Tbsp grated ginger

  • DRESSING: dressing is thick and creamy and should pour off spoon
  • 6 Tbsp creamy peanut butter

Method
 

  1. DRESSING:
  2. 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.
  3. Add in siracha, (quantity to taste, I used 2 Tbsp because I like spicy).
  4. If dressing is too thick, slowly stream in water as you blend/process.
  5. Set aside.
  6. SHRIMP:
  7. Heat sauté/fry pan on medium heat. Add coconut oil.
  8. When fully heated add garlic, ginger and jalapeño, sauté for 30 seconds to flavor the oil.
  9. Add the shrimp, cook for about 3 minutes each side or until done, shrimp should be opaque.
  10. Note* ginger mixture might stick to shrimp, this is perfectly fine.
  11. Set aside.
  12. SALAD:
  13. Divide and arrange in two bowls all the vegetables.
  14. Arrange shrimp on top.
  15. Drizzle dressing over each salad.
  16. Sprinkle with cilantro.
  17. 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.
