Ingredients
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon finely grated garlic
8 ounces dried penne
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces peeled, deveined medium shrimp
1 1/2 cups shredded romaine lettuce
1/4 cup finely chopped celery
2 medium vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped
Directions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Whisk the mayonnaise, Parmesan, sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl.
- Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool. Transfer to a large bowl along with the dressing.
- Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the shrimp, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is pink and just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside to cool.
- Add the cooked shrimp, romaine, celery and tomatoes to the bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta salad is best if served right away.
