Mango Chutney Dressing (recipe follows)
1/4 cup chicken broth, plus 2 to 3 tablespoons more if needed
4-5 large heads Bibb lettuce, cleaned, dried and torn into bite-size pieces (8 cups)
Salt to taste
2-1/2 pounds large (21-30 per pound) shelled, deveined cooked shrimp
1/4 cup dried currants for topping
1/2 cup toasted almonds for topping
Prepare Mango Chutney Dressing. Transfer 1/3 cup dressing to a large mixing bowl. Whisk in 1/4 cup broth to thin it. Add lettuce and toss well to coat greens lightly. Add salt.
Divide greens among 8 salad plates. Divide shrimp evenly and arrange on top of greens. Whisk remaining dressing; if it appears to be too thick, thin with 2 to 3 tablespoons more broth. Drizzle dressing over shrimp. Sprinkle each serving with currants and almonds.
