Instructions: Blend all ingredients for the dressing in a food blender or with a wire whip. Chill before serving.

Remove a few of the center leaves of the heads of butter lettuce. Chop and mix with the shrimp.

Place the lettuce "bowl" on a plate and pour a bit of the dressing over it. Place the chopped lettuce and shrimp mixture in the center of the "bowl". Add just a bit of the dressing and serve.

Garnish with the parsley.

Comments: This dish makes a fine first course. It is easy to do and if the shrimp are fresh it is delicious. You can use some other form of chopped lettuce if you wish.
