Caribbean Citrus Shrimp Salad

"One of my favorite summer salads. I'm not big on curry, however the original recipe calls for it so I included it in this recipe, I use half the amount called for."

  1. If I could give this 4.5 stars I would. I loved the bright and spicy flavors in this dish, but my lunch guests would have preferred a little less heat. I used a 4 oz. can of diced green chiles in place of the fresh pasilla, as I had everything else on hand and couldn't see making a grocery store run for 1 item. I had about 2 1/4 tablespoons of ginger by the time I was done shredding, so just tossed all of it in, which I know contributed to the heat. I also cut the salt down by half, and used all of the curry powder called for. I served this over brown rice because the sauce was just fabulous! I had asparagus on the side, and enjoyed every bite! Thanks for a new recipe to add to my rotation!
