Ingredients

  • For Poaching

  • 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • 1 pound large shrimp (31 to 35), peeled

  • For Serving

  • 2 tablespoons champagne or white-wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups corn kernels (from 3 ears)
  • 2 medium zucchini, diced medium
  • Salt and pepper

                  Directions

Top with shrimp mixture, season with salt and pepper, and serve warm.
