Directions:
- Place warm water in a container (we use a metal bowl) and place shrimp into water. Change water a few times and let sit until defrosted. Pull tails off, and put the shrimp on paper towels to dry. **Drying the shrimp helps keep it from splattering all over the place when you place it in oil in the pan**.
- In a dry pan (no oil in it) heat on medium-high.
- Place sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and 1 Tbsp of the Emeril's Cajun spice seasoning in the pan. Toast all 3 ingredients until lightly browned, watching and stirring so they don't burn (approx. 5 minutes). When sesame seeds are brown you're done, sunflower seeds won't turn color.
- Take the toasted sunflower and sesame seed mixture and place on a paper plate.
- Add sesame oil to pan (medium high). Cook about 1 minute, until hot .
- Sweat onions (cook til clear) in oil approximately 2-3 min (still on med high).
- Add shrimp to above. Cook another 1-2 minutes.
- Add 3/4 cup of sunflower and sesame seed mixture (save the rest for top of salad). Stir until hot.
- Add last Tbsp of Emeril's Cajun seasoning and stir/cook for 1-2 minutes. Take off heat.
- Pour lettuce into stainless steel bowl (or any bowl you desire). Spray NO fat olive oil spray onto lettuce (we use toasted sesame oil) and toss lettuce.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Put lettuce on serving dishes, add shrimp mixture and a pinch or two of remainder of the sunflower and sesame seed mixture. Optional: A squeeze of lemon.
- ENJOY.
