Fried Shrimp in Bib Lettuce Bowls

And secondly, it becomes much tastier, juicier and lighter than a snack on a slice of bread. Fry the shrimp in olive oil and dry wine, mix with aromatic fried onions and put them on the leaves of Bib-lettuce. It’s better to take thick leaves, located closer to the core, they will better keep in shape bowls. Pour shrimp with tart vinaigrette dressing and sprinkle crushed peanuts that will contrast nicely with tender креветками.
