Salad Recipes

Most meats take at least 20 minutes, depending on size and thickness. Shrimp, however, cook very quickly. I used small-size shrimp, which cook in about 4 minutes. Larger shrimp might take a whopping 3 minutes. Deal breaker, I know. The corn takes 10 minutes, and you can cook the shrimp while the corn cooks. Everything else in the recipe requires no cooking. Just a quick shake of the salad dressing, a quick toss in a mixing bowl, and you’re done! This is a nice, light meal for a hot summer night, but if you don’t think it sounds filling enough, you can add some croutons to the salad, or serve with slices of French or Italian bread. What’s even better is that the leftovers (if there are any) are delicious eaten cold the next day, when the dressing has had the time to soak into the shrimp and corn.

The sous-vide cooker is the best way to guarantee the juiciest, tenderest, most flavor-packed chicken salad. Adding aromatics directly to the cooking bag guarantees more flavorful results. Cooking the chicken sous-vide allows you to cook it to a lower temperature than traditional methods, guaranteeing moister meat while maintaining food safety standards. Adding aromatics to the sous-vide bags packs the chicken with flavor before you even begin to dress it, allowing you to use less mayonnaise in the end. Homemade mayonnaise is more flavorful and lighter than store-bought mayonnaise.
