Description
Delicious Shrimp Lettuce Wraps with a zesty cocktail sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup Sugar-Free Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon mayo (or more)
- 1 tablespoon fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons cream-style horseradish, or more
- 1 pound frozen cooked shrimp, thawed overnight in the fridge and drained well
- 1 cup sliced celery
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
- 1 large head iceberg lettuce
Instructions
- Remove shrimp from the refrigerator and let drain in a colander placed in the sink.
- Whisk together the sugar-free ketchup, 1 T mayo, lemon juice, and 2 tsp. horseradish.
- Then taste the cocktail sauce to see if you want more mayo (to make it creamier) or more horseradish (to make it spicier). Add more as desired until it’s as creamy/spicy as you like it.
- When shrimp have drained well, pat them dry with paper towels.
- Depending on what size shrimp you use, cut them into pieces as desired.
- Slice the celery into thin pieces and thinly chop enough green onion to make about 1/4 cup.
- Combine the shrimp, celery, and green onion in a bowl.
- Cut the iceberg lettuce in half, cut out the core, and discard any wilted or damaged outer leaves.
- Then peel off 2-3 pieces of lettuce at a time to form a “cup.”
- You may have to use two heads of lettuce to get enough cups to eat this much shrimp if your lettuce is small or doesn’t separate well.
- Scoop desired amount of the shrimp mixture into each lettuce cup and top with a couple of spoonfuls of the cocktail sauce.
- Eat the Shrimp Lettuce Wraps right away.
- You can keep the ingredients refrigerated separately if this makes more than you’ll eat at one time.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of mayo and horseradish based on your desired creaminess and spiciness.
