Calories 340kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ pound (340g) cold water (small) shrimp cooked, peeled, tails removed
- 1 rib celery chopped
- 1 green onion or chives chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- ½ tbsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp Old Bay or homemade seafood seasoning
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 4 brioche buns or fancy hot dog buns
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Once the shrimp are thawed, pat them try with a paper towel. Reserve about 16 shrimp for garnishing.
- Mix the remaining shrimp with the celery, green onions (or chives), dill, mayonnaise, lemon juice, seafood seasoning and black pepper. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the flavours to marry.
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan. Place the buns, cut side down and cook for about one to two minutes until golden brown.
- Add the shrimp mixture to the buns then top with the reserved whole shrimp.
Notes
If using medium-sized shrimp, reserve some for garnishing but chop the rest to use in the filling mixture. Lettuce, preferably Boston, Bibb or other butter varieties, may also be included in this recipe. Just place it in the buns first, under the filling.
