Keto Seafood Salad

A salad a day keeps the doctor away

It’s salad time once again on Headbanger’s Kitchen. Last time I made my basic Keto chicken salad and so today we’re switching it up and using seafood, prawns to be specific. I had half a vision of prawn cocktail when I thought of this salad and the other half was tarter sauce. It’s the reason I picked the combination of mayo, onion and gherkins. I switched up the parsley for dill because I enjoyed it so much when I used it for my salmon cucumber roll, it is a beautiful pairing with seafood. The idea for adding the boiled egg came from my Tuna salad recipe. I’m literally taking inspiration from myself, or maybe even ripping myself off a bit. Anyway I have a feeling you will really enjoy this salad. Bon Appetite.

Bring out the flavours

In the video I used a rather wide pan to cook the prawns but the idea is to cook it in more of a sauce pan and let the prawns and garlic almost slow poach in that butter. The herbs I used are just a basic store bought bottle titled ‘mixed herbs’ so you can use any kind of flavours you like, the idea is that they infuse into that butter along with the seafood flavours and finally you end up with a lovely flavoured butter that becomes one with the mayo. You can also add anything you like to flavour the dressing as well. You can also use any seafood you like for this, dare I say you can even use chicken.

  1. Hi Saahil,
    Thank you so much for those mouth-watering Keto recipes. I would like to ask you a favor if you could make a video on Indian recipes for a 1200 Calorie meal plan. I am a bit confused about adjusting the macros in those Indian recipes that you made for a 1500 calorie meal plan. Appreciate if you could help me.

    1. Hi Aysha, you just need to reduce the portion size in that same plan. You only need to reduce 300 calories so just adjust the portion of one of the meals and it will be fine.
