Shrimp and Noodle Salad with Ginger Dressing

  • ACTIVE:
  • TOTAL TIME: 30 MIN
  • SERVINGS: 4 to 6

Instead of spending time shredding cabbage and carrots, Grace Parisi uses prepackaged coleslaw mix. She tosses it with noodles and shrimp, then adds a spicy, gingery dressing prepared with other easy-to-find supermarket ingredients, like bottled teriyaki sauce and chile-garlic sauce.

Our Pairing Suggestion

Citrusy, off-dry Riesling, such as one from Washington State.

  2. 12 ounces shredded coleslaw mix
  3. 2 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced
  4. 1 cup cilantro leaves

  9. 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  10. Salt

  1. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Pat dry and transfer to a large bowl. Add the coleslaw mix, scallions, cilantro and shrimp.
  2. In a blender, combine the teriyaki sauce with the ginger and chile-garlic sauce and puree until smooth. With the machine on, slowly add the vegetable oil in a thin stream and puree until the dressing is emulsified. Season lightly with salt.
