Instructions
- Defrost frozen shrimp by placing them in a bowl of cold water. Keep chilled until needed.
- Cook the pasta in well salted water (1 tablespoon salt for every 2 quarts water) until al dente, a bit firmer than you would normally eat. (The pasta will absorb some of the salad dressing and soften further after cooking.),Rinse the pasta in cold water to stop the cooking. Drain well and put into a large bowl.
- Rinse the shrimp and drain well. Add them to the bowl with the pasta and mix. Add the remaining ingredients and gently mix until well combined.
- Chill the salad for at least an hour before serving. Serve chilled.
