Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound peeled and deveined frozen shrimp (any size), thawed 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream 1/2 cup light mayonnaise 2 scallions, coarsely chopped, plus more for garnish (optional) 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice Coarse salt and ground pepper Crostini, crackers, or crudites, for serving

Directions

Fit a large saucepan with a steamer basket, and fill with 1 inch water; cover and bring to a boil. Add shrimp; cover and cook, tossing once, until opaque throughout, 30 seconds to 4 minutes (depending on size of shrimp). Immediately transfer to a colander, and run under cold water to stop cooking. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels, then finely chop.

In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, sour cream, mayonnaise, scallions, parsley, and lemon zest and juice; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate shrimp dip until chilled, at least 30 minutes (and up to 2 days). Serve shrimp dip garnished with scallions, if desired, alongside crostini, crackers, or crudites.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       11/26/2014   Very tasty. I used fresh dill rather than parsley, as lemon & dill are shrimp's soulmates, and added a big pinch of Old Bay to the sour cream/mayo/lemon juice mix. When steaming, I used the dill stems and a slice of lemon peel in the water. Crostini and cucumber slices work very nicely as vessels for the dip.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       12/29/2012   I love this recipe!!! its the only one I always remember. every time I've made it for a party everyone loves and I even make it for myself. I do use low fat mayo and sour cream and whole food has great crostini's already made in the bakery..... THANKS MARTHA STEWART!!!!!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/03/2012   Amazing, super easy and super fresh.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       10/24/2011   I loved this recipe and so did my family. However, I used fresh shrimp that I steamed. Didn't change anything else. I will be making this for the upcoming holidays.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/12/2009   I made this for the 4th, and everyone liked it. I added some shredded cheddar cheese to it. I also liked it, but felt it lacked something....would try adding some mashed roasted garlic next time. However it was very quick and easy to make....I used pre-cooked shrimp, just had to pull the shell off the tails.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/17/2009   Grandiosa receta, los felicito.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/27/2009   Sounds great but my hubby is lactose intolerant, is there any good substitution for sour cream or cream cheese in recipes?  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       12/27/2008   I really enjoyed this dip. It was very easy to prepare and has great flavor.
