Grilled Shrimp Caesar Salad
The single anchovy fillet lends umami depth to the dressing without giving it any sort of strong fishy flavor.

This was absolutely delicious. The dressing was bright and refreshing - love the lemon rind addition. I didn't add anchovies and used a bit of roasted garlic I had on hand. I read a few reviews saying the shrimp didn't have enough flavor so I sprinkled Old Bay seasoning on it before cooking. I'll be making this again and again. Thanks!
I agree with the reviews on this one, really good. My husband was a little skeptical at first, but kept saying how good it was. Definitely will add to our favorites. Took the advice of others and added garlic and then some chili lime seasoning to shrimp before grilling.
I used anchovy paste as well. This is now a family favorite.
I also used anchovy paste in place of anchovies. I also added some minced garlic when I sauteed the shrimp. I think next time I will skewer and grill the shrimp on the Traeger. Loved the dressed. A keeper!
Made this last night and while the dressing was delicious, something was lacking in the shrimp. Next time I will try adding garlic and a few herbs to the shrimp.
My husband loved it, I loved it - and I'm not a fan of Caesar salad. I may have added too much anchovies, as I erroneously read one ounce instead of one fillet. It turned out a bit salty for my taste, but very tasty and good. Definitely a keeper!!!
This dressing is fabulous! I used regular mayo and after all of the dressing ingredients were whisked together it was super thick so I thinned it with a little (maybe 1-2 TBSP) filtered cold water and whisked again. (I do this with many homemade dressings. Trust me - it thins without adding more oil or ruining flavors.) I used anchovy paste because I always have a tube in my fridge. My fiancé absolutely loved it and he usually doesn't care about Caesar salad. I think I may have converted him on anchovies! He said please make it again! I think this is my new favorite quick and easy dinner recipe! Would be great with grilled chicken or steak also! Thank you!
This was a super simple dish to make. I used anchovy paste because I still had a tube in the fridge from a prior recipe and it worked great. My husband said it was probably the best caesar dressing he has had. The flavors melded so beautifully because not one ingredient overpowered another.
So good, so quick. The shrimp made for a great salad!
