I am always in the mood for King Prawns and therefore decided to make a Low Carb and Keto King Prawn Salad. The Salad is filled with radishes, cherry tomatoes and a bit of broccoli. As a salad dressing, I made a Garlic & Lemon Yogurt dressing that goes well with the King Prawns. Each Keto Salad contains on average 13.5 carbs.

There are always options to add more ingredients to this low-carb salad. For example, other keto salad vegetables or fruits could be: onion, avocado, mango or some peppers/chilis.

Other options are to add some low-carb nuts, like pecans, almonds, walnuts, or macadamia.

Alternatively, you can add cheese to make this a Keto Dinner Salad: feta, mozzarella, halloumi or parmesan cheese.

Step by Step Instructions Keto King Prawn Salad

Below you can find the step-by-step instructions to make this Keto Salad with King Prawns.

1. Fry the King Prawns

First of all, take a sharp knife and score down the back of the shrimp. Remove the thin, digestive tract with the tip of the knife.

Then, rinse the prawns under running water and pat dry with a paper towel.

Meanwhile, cut one clove of garlic. Pour some olive oil into the pan and add the garlic.

Fry the king prawns with their shell over high heat for about 4-5 minutes. Add Himalayan sea salt to taste.

Stir the King Prawns until they turn pink.

2. Cut the vegetables

Wash the lettuce, cherry tomatoes and radishes. Slice the radishes and optionally the cherry tomatoes.

I had some left-over broccoli that I added to the salad as well. This was about 30 grams. You can just boil the florets for about 6-8 minutes. Let them cool down a bit before adding them to the salad.

Alternatively, you can stir-fry the broccoli. Cut them into bite-sized florets. Then, heat 1 tbsp of oil in a frying pan and add the florets to it. Stir-fry them for 4-5 minutes or until they are tender.

Place the mixed lettuce on the plate. Then, divide the cherry tomatoes, slices of radish, and broccoli over the salad.

3. Make the Garlic & Yogurt Salad Dressing

Now the Low Carb & Keto Salad is almost done, we need to make the Keto Salad Dressing.

Scoop one tablespoon of full-fat Greek yogurt into a bowl. Add ½ tablespoon of olive oil and one or two teaspoons of water to make the dressing a bit more fluid.

Squeeze the juice of 1/8 or ¼ (to taste) of a lemon into the Greek yogurt.

Chop up 1 garlic clove and stir it into the dressing. Finally, add a teaspoon of Provencial herbs (Herbs de Provence) and a bit of salt.

Give it a good stir and your low-carb salad dressing is ready.

4. Assemble the Keto King Prawn Salad with its Dressing

It’s almost time to eat. Divide the King Prawns over the lettuce and vegetables.

Drizzle the homemade Keto Garlic & Lemon Yogurt Dressing over the king prawns and the salad.

Drizzle ½ of olive oil over the salad. Your Low Carb & Keto King Prawn Salad with a Garlic & Lemon Yogurt Dressing is ready!
