Method: This dish cooks quickly so have your sauce hot.
For the cole slaw, just before cooking the shrimp, toss the cabbage with just enough
mayonnaise to coat. Add in 1/2 the green onions, 1/2 the blue cheese and season with salt and pepper. Toss well and taste.
Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat the oil just smoking in 2 large saute pans and
add the shrimp being careful not to crowd. Cook the shrimp until golden brown; about 2-3 minutes on each side. Place a pile of the slaw in the middle of your plate and lean 5 shrimp
against the slaw and the sixth one on top. Sauce each of the shrimp and a little more around the plate. Sprinkle each plate with the remaining green onion and blue cheese. Garnish the rim of the plate with black pepper.
