Broiled Shrimp Toasts with Greens
Serves 4
Time 25 min
This easy take on the Chinese classic is broiled, not fried, so it’s light and tasty. We pair it with fresh, lemony mixed greens to make it a meal on its own.
Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 3/4 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 4 green onions, light green and white parts, chopped
- 1/8 teaspoon coarse sea salt, divided
- 12 slices (about 12 ounces) sprouted whole grain bread
- 1 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 8 cups lightly packed mixed greens (about 4 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Method
In a food processor, combine shrimp, mustard, green onions and 1 pinch salt, and pulse until you have a paste.
Preheat the broiler.
Place bread on a sheet pan and broil just until lightly toasted on one side, 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove from the broiler, turn slices over, and spread untoasted sides with about 2 tablespoons shrimp mixture.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Broil 6 to 7 inches from heat until shrimp is cooked through and browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
In a large bowl, toss greens with lemon juice, pepper and remaining salt and serve with the toasts.
