This was really, really great. We marinated the shrimp in the sauce for about an hour and and then topped the lettuce with it.

Oh my, delicious salad Sue! I made dinner without cooking a thing tonight and it was delicious. I used already cooked shrimp from the store and made the rest pretty as written except that I just can't get lemongrass here but I used some lemongrass powder....poor substitute but better than nothing. Also, I used up half a bag of Earthbound Farms organic herbs combine with the green leaf lettuce called for in the recipe. My husband and I discovered pretty quick that the dill in the herb mix was NOT compatible with the other flavors in this salad! So, we picked it all out. I also cut down on the black pepper a bit and halved the mint, just for our own tastes. We really enjoyed this salad and it's so easy to put together on a summer evening. Thanks Sue, we'll be doing this one again!
