Ensalada de Camarones

Ingredientes:

  • 1 kg de camarones
  • 1/2 taza de apio, finamente cortado en cubitos (1 tallo grande)
  • 1/2 taza de cebollín en rodajas finas
  • 1 papa cocida, cortada en cubos
  • 1 zanahoria cocida, cortada en cubos
  • 1 taza de elotes cocidos
  • 1/2 taza (100 gramos) de mayonesa (puedes usar mayonesa casera si lo prefieres)
  • 2 cucharadas de jugo de limón fresco
  • 1/4 de cucharadita de sal marina fina
  • 4 giros de molinillo de pimienta negra
  • Opcional: una pizca de eneldo fresco o seco

Preparación:

Cocinar los camarones:

  1. Agrega 2 litros de agua a una olla grande y colócala en la estufa a fuego alto.
  2. Exprime un poco de jugo de limón en el agua y agrega las mitades de limón restantes a la olla.
  3. Añade un diente de ajo, 1 hoja de laurel, un poco de pimienta, sal y condimento cajún al gusto.
  4. Lleva el agua a ebullición. Una vez que hierva, retira la olla del fuego y sumerge inmediatamente los camarones en el agua caliente.
  5. Déjalos cocinar durante 3 minutos.
  6. Con unas pinzas o una cuchara ranurada, retira los camarones cocidos y colócalos en un plato. Deja que se enfríen por completo en el refrigerador.

Preparar la ensalada:

  1. Una vez que los camarones estén fríos, colócalos en un tazón grande junto con las verduras picadas (apio, cebollín, papa, zanahoria y elotes).
  2. Agrega la mayonesa, el jugo de limón, la sal, la pimienta y, si lo deseas, un poco de eneldo.
  3. Mezcla todos los ingredientes hasta que estén bien combinados.
  4. Deja reposar la ensalada en el refrigerador durante al menos 1 hora para que los sabores se mezclen y se intensifiquen.

Servir:

Sirve fría como plato principal o acompañamiento. Puedes decorar con hojas frescas de perejil o eneldo si lo prefieres.
