Ingredients

1 4-ounce can tiny shrimp, drained

3 tablespoons diced celery, plus 2 tablespoons finely chopped celery leaves

3 tablespoons diced red onion

1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

1/3 cup cocktail sauce

15 frozen mini phyllo shells (one 1.9-ounce package), thawed

Directions

  1. Stir together the shrimp, celery, red onion, lemon zest, lemon juice and olive oil in a medium bowl until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Divide the cocktail sauce among the phyllo shells and fill with the shrimp salad. Garnish with the celery leaves.

Cook’s Note

For extra crunch, prebake your phyllo on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 375 ̊ F until browned, about 5 minutes. Let cool, then fill.

Very easy, very good, and a winner. Except -- I use less oil. The first time I made it it was too oily and liquid. Better next time.
