Lemon Shrimp with Horseradish-Mustard Sauce

This lemony shrimp recipe was adapted from a Noom recipe. Imagine warm juicy shrimp with cocktail sauce, but swap the red cocktail sauce with Dijon mustard! *It's quick, low calorie, low fat and delicious!
I like to grill the lemons but its not absolutely necessary. The char is great though! You can also sauté or boil the shrimp if preferred.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ lb shrimp Raw, peeled, cleaned (Can keep tails on)
  • 2 lemons One for the sauce, the second is optional for garnish.
  • 3 tbsp Dijon mustard You could add/swap some whole grain mustard
  • 3 tbsp prepared horseradish *Needs to be prepared horseradish, not the creamy sauce. To taste, I prefer to add more for spiciness!
  • 3 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt I like Fage' or Greek Gods
  • 3 scallions Chopped scallion tops
  • salt and pepper To taste
  • 1 tsp red palm oil Or spray oil, olive oil to cook the shrimp

Instructions
 

  • Slice one lemon in half and squeeze half into a small bowl.
  • Cut the remaining lemon(s) into wedges.
  • Add yogurt, mustard, half of the diced scallions, and 2-3 tbsp (to taste) horseradish to the bowl and whisk to combine. Adjust for salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Prepare grill or heat a pan to medium-high.
  • Add oil to the pan.
  • Grill the lemon wedges until slightly charred. (Or add to the hot oiled pan.)
  • Cook the shrimp, flipping once they begin to curl and turn pink and they lose their translucent look. Squeeze a couple of grilled lemon wedges over the shrimp.
  • Remove shrimp from heat and add mustard-horseradish sauce to coat.
  • Serve immediately. Garnish with grilled lemon wedges and scallions.

Notes

  • For a creamier sauce, add more Greek yogurt
  • For a spicier sauce, add more horseradish
This is a low fat and low calorie dish, but as always, refer to your doctor or dietician for nutritional advice.
