Cucumber and Shrimp Salad

I didn’t even realize that I liked shrimp until I had this salad.  And boy, is it easy to make.  On days when Dukan lets you have vegetables, this is a go-to favorite of mine.  And it takes about 5 minutes to assemble and 10 minutes to marinate.  Here it is, in its simplicity…

SHRIMP AND CUCUMBER SALAD RECIPE

1/2 large English cucumber, peeled, sliced and quartered
1 lb cooked jumbo shrimp, tails removed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar
dash of soy sauce
1 T minced fresh chives
1 t finely diced jalapeno, seeded (optional)

Toss all ingredients together and season with pepper.  Let marinade for at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator.  Serve cold.

Serves 4 as a side dish, or 2 as an entree salad
