Delicious Grilled Shrimp Panzanella Salad Recipe is Oh-So Satisfying
Grilled bread, shrimp and avocado give this dish a slightly smoky flavor that's irresistible
If you’re looking to take your salad game up a notch, this grilled shrimp panzanella salad recipe is just the thing. The entire dish is cooked on the grill, and that’s what gives it rich deep flavor. You can grill year-round, no matter where you live. If weather permits, make this salad on your grill outdoors. If not, grill it on your stovetop in a grill pan. The dish is versatile! And It’s simple to make. First, succulent shrimp are marinated in a zesty dressing and then quickly grilled. Next up, we grill crusty Italian bread followed by some avocado. Then we cut everything up and toss it all together with dressing. The bread soaks up the tangy flavor of the dressing, but stays perfectly crunchy. The salad is a mix of different tastes and textures, which is what makes it so, so good.
Give this dish a try — we promise you’re going to love it! Watch our video to see how quick and simple it is to prep.
