Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 tablespoon kosher salt, divided, plus 1 teaspoon
1 lb elbow macaroni
2 cups mayonnaise
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 medium carrots, shredded
2 scallions, thinly sliced
¼ cup buttermilk
1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ cups margarita mix
4 tablespoons blanco tequila, divided
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 lime, zested
Lime wedge, for serving
2 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
¼ cup unsweetend coconut milk, plus 2 tablespoons for serving
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 lime, juiced
2 bunches kale, stems discarded, leaves roughly chopped
4 oz snow peas, ends trimmed, halved crosswise
¼ cup unsweetened toasted coconut flakes, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the macaroni salad: Bring 3 quarts of water to boil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the macaroni. Cook al dente according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and return to the Dutch oven. Cool for 5 minutes.
  • Add the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon of kosher salt to the pasta fold to thoroughly combine. Set aside to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Marinate the margarita shrimp: Add the shrimp and kosher salt to a large bowl. Toss to combine. Pour the margarita mix over top. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes while you prepare the braised greens.
  • Make the braised coconut greens: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the garlic and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant and just starting to soften.
  • Add ¼ cup of coconut milk plus the sugar and lime juice to the saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
  • Add the kale leaves and snow peas, and season again with salt and pepper. Cover the saucepan and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the leaves are wilted and soft and the snow peas are tender.
  • Cook the shrimp: Pour the marinade liquid into a 10-inch skillet, leaving the shrimp in the bowl. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by two-thirds to about ½ cup.
  • Add the shrimp and 2 tablespoons of tequila to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, for about 3 minutes, until the shrimp are bright pink and opaque.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of tequila plus the cilantro and lime zest. Simmer for about 1 minute, tossing the shrimp to thoroughly coat. Serve immediately alongside the macaroni salad and braised greens.
  • Just before serving, fold in the carrots, scallions, and buttermilk into the cooled macaroni salad. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut milk to the greens and garnish with toasted coconut flakes.
  • Enjoy!
