How To Make field greens with shrimp, corn and ginger

  • Step 1
    For the Ginger Dressing, mix the mayonnaise in a small bowl with the vinegar and water or orange juice.
  • Step 2
    Whisk in the oil in a slow, thin stream.
  • Step 3
    Press each ginger slice in a garlic press over a small glass, yielding about 2 teaspoons of juice.
  • Step 4
    Add the ginger juice to the dressing to taste.
  • Step 5
    Season with salt and pepper. (This can be prepared ahead, covered and set aside at room temperature for about 2 hours or refrigerated until 1 hour before serving.)
  • Step 6
    Cook corn kernels in a pot of simmering water for 5 minutes; drain. (This can be prepared ahead and set aside at room temperature.)
  • Step 7
    Place a heavy small nonstick skillet over medium heat and film it with about 1 tablespoon of oil.
  • Step 8
    Add the shrimp and cook until just pink, for about 2 minutes total, turning with tongs halfway. (This can be prepared ahead and set aside at cool room temperature for several hours.)
  • Step 9
    To serve, mix the corn and salad greens in a large bowl.
  • Step 10
    Gently toss with enough dressing to coat lightly.
  • Step 11
    Mound the salad in the center of 4 or 6 large plates.
  • Step 12
    Mix the shrimp with several tablespoons of the remaining dressing to coat lightly.
  • Step 13
    Arrange the shrimp around the salad.
  • Step 14
    Sprinkle the salad with green onions.

    Serve immediately.
