Cucumber Shrimp Boats
These cucumber shrimp boats are packed with flavor and texture, thanks to a spicy mayo drizzle, soy-sauce shrimp and crunchy umami furikake. We use mini cucumbers, but if you can't find them, you can swap in two regular cucumbers. Be sure to squeeze out the liquid from the scooped-out cucumber to prevent sogginess.

Ingredients

Directions

  • Slice cucumbers lengthwise; scoop out the insides to create hollow boats. Chop the scooped-out cucumber; place in a clean dish towel and squeeze out excess moisture. Transfer to a small bowl. Add ginger, cilantro and vinegar to the squeezed cucumber; stir to combine. Set aside.

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toss together shrimp, oil and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Add the shrimp in an even layer to the skillet; cook until opaque on both sides and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

  • Stir together mayonnaise and sambal oelek in a small bowl. Divide rice evenly among the cucumber boats; top each boat with 3 shrimp. Top with some of the cucumber relish, and drizzle with spicy mayonnaise. Sprinkle with furikake.
