Helpful Tips to make Po Boy Shrimp Pasta Salad:
- It is important to not overcook your tortellini otherwise it will fall apart when tossed.
- To stop your pasta from cooking after it’s removed from the heat, rinse and drain it in cold water then drizzle it with a touch of olive oil to keep it from sticking together.
- Discard the very top flimsy part of the Romaine because it doesn’t have as much crunch then use the lettuce closest to the bottom stem for maximum crunch.
- Don’t overcrowd your shrimp in the skillet otherwise it will steam. Instead, cook shrimp in two batches.
- In order to develop a deep colorful sear on your shrimp, don’t touch it for 2 minutes, flip, and then don’t touch it again until it’s cooked through.
- This Po Boy Shrimp Pasta Salad has a kick to it but should not be overly spicy so everyone can enjoy it. If you want to make it spicier, add hot sauce to the Dressing to taste.
- When making the salad ahead, toss all the ingredients together except the Romaine lettuce, with 1/2 of the dressing. Reserve the remaining dressing to pour over the salad before you serve it.
- You can make the dressing up to 24 hours in advance and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
What you will need to make Po Boy Shrimp Pasta Salad:
- Colander – this kitchen essential makes life so much easier! You can use it to drain pasta or wash veggies and fruit.
- Cutting Board- A big good solid cutting board so you can prep all your veggies on one surface. I use my cutting board daily so it’s worth the investment.
- Quality Knives- Quality knives make prep time much quicker and are important for safety as well. If you make one kitchen investment, I believe it should be in quality knives.
- Heavy duty non-stick pan- Non stick pans make cooking a dream so even when blackening food, like shrimp, it never sticks!
Enjoy!

How to make Po' Boy Shrimp Pasta Salad

- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook tortellini according to directions on the package (do not add salt to the water). Rinse with cool water and drain, then add to a large bowl. Toss with a little of the Dressing to keep it from sticking together. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add half of the shrimp in an even layer and cook 2 minutes, then flip shrimp over and cook another 2 minutes or until cooked through. Repeat with remaining shrimp. Once cool enough to handle, remove tails from shrimp.

COOK'S NOTES
- If you are traveling with this salad or making it ahead, layer it in the order listed (the first ingredient goes in the bottom of the bowl, etc). Travel with the dressing separately and add it once you are ready to serve it to keep salad perfectly crisp.
