Shrimp Salad Rolls

 

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Brookshire Brothers shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails removed
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp chives, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish
  • 2 Tbsp tarragon, finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp dill, finely chopped
  • ½ lemon, juiced (about 1 Tbsp)
  • 1 Tbsp tarragon vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
  • 1 Tbsp + ½ tsp kosher salt, divided
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 split top buns
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

For serving:

  • Kettle chips

Directions

  1. Bring a medium saucepan filled with water to a rapid boil. Add 1 Tbsp salt, then add shrimp. Turn the heat off immediately and allow shrimp to slowly poach for 2-3 minutes until fully pink.
  2. Meanwhile, fill a large bowl halfway with ice, then cover with cold water. Immediately transfer cooked shrimp to ice bath and allow to cool while you make the sauce.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl combine mayonnaise, chives, tarragon, dill, lemon juice, tarragon vinegar, remaining ½ tsp salt, and black pepper. Whisk to combine.
  4. Drain shrimp and chop into small pieces. Add to mayonnaise, then toss to thoroughly coat. Set aside.
  5. Heat buns: you can place them in a toaster oven, in a traditional oven preheated to 350 F, or on a stove top on a griddle coated with nonstick cook spray. When hot, brush the inside of each bun with melted butter.
  6. Fill each bun with ¼ of the shrimp salad mixture. Garnish with additional chopped chives, then serve immediately.
