Grilled Shrimp with Louie Sauce

Inspired by classic American shrimp cocktails, this dish brings a West Coast breeze to the plate with smoky grilled shrimp infused with lemongrass and dipped in a tangy herb-filled Louie sauce. Traditionally served cold, it is reimagined warm with layers of texture from crisp lettuce and a bright cube salad. It suits summer cookouts, late brunches, or sunset beers with friends. Lemongrass adds not only a citrusy aroma but may help with digestion while shrimp offers lean protein and is naturally low in fat. Light yet satisfying this is a nostalgic dish with a fresh twist.
