I am very fortunate to not be allergic to anything. My husband Mike, however, is allergic to shrimp. What a sad sad existence to be allergic to shrimp. It’s my absolute favorite seafood. I can’t get enough of shrimp tacos, fried shrimp, and shrimp scampi [4].
I’ve told Mike that he’s unlucky to be allergic to shrimp, but being that he doesn’t quite know what he’s missing, I guess it’s not as bad for him. But, gosh, if I developed an allergy to shrimp, I don’t know what I’d do. It would be like the end of my life as I know it.
In the same day that I made Shrimp Scampi Galletti [4] for lunch, I used the rest of the shrimp and made this Key Lime Shrimp Salad for dinner. A day consisting of lots of shrimp is essentially the best day ever.
These grilled shrimps are tart and slightly spicy and the best thing for this salad. I used my favorite bottled dressing, Ken’s Steakhouse Italian, and then went back for seconds. I’ve never eaten so many shrimp in one day in my life.
