Recipe type: Salad
Cuisine: Asian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
For the dressing
  • 3 Tbsp. peanut butter powder (or peanut butter or your favorite nut butter)
  • 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. water
  • 2 tsp. sriracha
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
For the shrimp
  • 12 jumbo shrimp (about ½ pound)
  • 1 tsp. fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
For the salad
  • 1 medium zucchini, spiralized
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned
  • ½ Kirby cucumber, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • small handful fresh herbs (I used Thai basil, cilantro and mint), chopped
Instructions
  1. To make the dressing, whisk all the ingredients in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt or a little more soy sauce.
  2. Place the spiralized zucchini in a large bowl and add a few tablespoons of the dressing. Toss to coat and set aside for about 15 minutes.
  3. To make the shrimp, toss the shrimp with the coriander powder, garlic, ginger and sesame oil in a small bowl. Season with salt.
  4. Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until opaque, about 4 minutes, turning them halfway thru. Remove to a plate.
  5. Add remaining vegetables and herbs to the zoodles and add more dressing. Toss everything together until combined and divide among two plates. Top each with half the shrimp.
