Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs shrimp (16–20 or 21–25 peeled and deveined)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon orange zest (from 2 oranges)
- 2 tablespoons orange juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup chopped fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons capers (drained)
- 2 tablespoons red onion (small diced)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Prepare Shrimp: Using a sheet of paper towel, pat dry the shrimp on both sides. Transfer onto a sheet pan. Spread the shrimp on a single layer, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss together to ensure that the shrimp is evenly coated with oil and seasoning.
- Roast Shrimp: Roast for 6-8 minutes, flipping them halfway through roasting. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set it aside.
- Make the salad dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, orange zest, orange juice, and vinegar in a mixing bowl. Add the dill, capers, and red onion and mix to combine.
- Toss, rest and serve: Pour the dressing over the shrimp and toss to combine. Cover with stretch film and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
