Cooking Steps

Start prep
1
  • To a large pot, add 10 cups water and 1/2 tbsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Bring to a boil over high.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Fill a large bowl with and 2 cups (3 cups) ice and enough cold water to cover. (NOTE: This is your ice bath.)
  • Drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels.
Cook eggs and shrimp
2
  • Using a spoon, lower eggs into the boiling water. Cook for 6 min.
  • Once eggs have cooked for 6 min, add shrimp. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn pink.**
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove shrimp and eggs and transfer to the prepared ice bath. Set aside for 5 min. (NOTE: This is a method called 'shocking'. This prevents shrimp from overcooking.)
Prep
3
  • Thinly slice chives.
  • Cut cucumbers into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
  • Juice half the lemon, then cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • To a small bowl, add mayo, Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, lemon juice and half the chives. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Melt 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter in the microwave.
Finish shrimp
4
  • Drain eggs and shrimp.
  • Pat shrimp dry with paper towels, pressing to absorb as much moisture as possible.
  • Cut shrimp in half.
  • To a large bowl, add shrimp and half the mayo mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat.
Toast buns and peel eggs
5
  • Halve buns. Trim off and discard half an inch from the top of top buns to flatten.
  • On an unlined baking sheet, arrange buns. Brush melted butter over top. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Toast in the middle of the oven for 3-4 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • While buns toast, peel and quarter eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide buns between plates.
  • Spread remaining mayo mixture over buns. 
  • Top with cucumbers, spring mix, shrimp mixture and eggs.
  • Sprinkle remaining chives over top.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: Light, fresh, and satisfying, with the herbed mayo standing out as a particular highlight for reviewers.
  • Ease of prep: Straightforward to prepare overall; some found the egg-cooking step a bit fiddly and time-consuming.
  • Suggestions: Consider pan-frying the shrimp instead of poaching for a slightly different texture; adding avocado is a popular optional addition. Substituting Greek yogurt for some or all of the mayo works well if you prefer a lighter spread.
  • Portions: Some reviewers found the meal on the lighter side and suggest adding a side salad or using two eggs per serving to make it more filling.
