Ingredients
  

For the Shrimp Salad
  • 1 lb pre-cooked baby shrimp A convenient protein source that saves you time.
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise Gives creaminess and flavor; Greek yogurt is a great substitute for a lighter option.
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice Adds bright acidity; always opt for fresh for better taste.
  • 2 stalks celery Adds a crunchy texture and freshness to the salad, finely diced.
  • 1 tbsp fresh chives Brings herbaceous notes; can use green onions if preferred, minced.
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika Adds depth and a lovely smoky undertone.
  • 1/4 tsp salt Enhances overall flavors; adjust for low-sodium needs.
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper Introduces a mild kick for seasoning.
For the Rolls
  • 4 brioche hot dog rolls Soft and buttery base that complements the salad beautifully.
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter For toasting the rolls, enhancing their flavor and texture.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together the ingredients until smooth, creating a rich dressing.
  2. Gently fold in the pre-cooked baby shrimp and finely diced celery into the dressing, ensuring even coating. Add minced chives, folding carefully.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add softened unsalted butter. Once melted, toast brioche rolls split-side down for about 2 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Remove rolls from skillet, then lay a handful of shredded iceberg lettuce at the bottom of each roll.
  5. Generously spoon shrimp salad mixture into each toasted brioche roll. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
