- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 3/4 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/3 cup light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
- 4 anchovy fillets, rinsed and minced
- 1 to 2 tablespoons water
- 1 large head romaine lettuce (1 1/2 pounds), torn into pieces
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Place tortillas on a baking sheet.
- Dividing evenly, brush both sides with 1 teaspoon oil; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake until golden brown and crisp, turning once, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Let cool, then break into pieces.
- Heat broiler.
- In a large bowl, toss shrimp with remaining teaspoon each oil and chili powder.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Lay shrimp flat on a broiler pan, and cook until opaque throughout and lightly browned, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, Parmesan, anchovies, and 1 tablespoon water, adding more water as needed to reach desired consistency.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, toss lettuce with dressing.
- Divide among four plates, and top each with shrimp and broken tortillas.
- Serve with more Parmesan.
- Heres another calorie saver: The salad is topped with baked corn tortillas, broken into pieces, instead of the usual buttery croutons.
