Place all the Remoulade Sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine well. Taste and adjust seasoning to your likings.
Add the shrimp and stir to coat.
Chill for 2 hour for flavors to meld.
Plate over greens, stuff into half an avocado,(my Favorite) or into a Baguette.
Enjoy!
FYI: If you don`t enjoy a chunky salad like sauce by all means blend it for a smooth dressing.
