Healthy Regional Recipes Healthy European Recipes Healthy Italian Recipes Healthy Italian Salad Recipes Shaved Artichoke Salad with Shrimp Be the first to rate & review! Venice was built on saltwater marshes in the 6th century, and many local crops like the city's Sant'Erasmo artichokes, have a delicate taste of the sea. For this healthy salad artichokes are sliced thin--a great use for a mandolin if you have one--and served raw. When paired with the sweet-salty shrimp the combo evokes the flavors of the lagoon. For tender and tasty results, buy the smallest, freshest artichokes you can find.

Cut stems from artichokes and discard. Working with one artichoke at a time, pull off all the leaves and soft purple petals and discard. Using a sharp paring knife, trim any remaining green parts from the heart. Rub with the cut side of the remaining lemon half. Scoop out the fuzzy choke with a melon baller or spoon. Rub again with the lemon half. Place the artichoke heart in the lemon water to prevent discoloration while you trim the rest. Very thinly slice the artichoke hearts and immediately toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons oil, mint, salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve the shrimp with the artichokes and garnished with more mint, if desired.
