Directions

Step 2

Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for high heat. If using a charcoal grill, arrange the hot coals in an even layer. Let the grates heat for at least 5 minutes before grilling. If using a gas grill, set all burners to high heat.

Step 3

On a large rimmed baking sheet, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Drizzle the olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of pepper over the shrimp and toss until well coated.

Step 4

Before getting started, make sure to clean the grill grates. Place the shrimp on the grill and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink on one side. Use tongs to flip the shrimp over and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes, until the shrimp is fully pink and opaque. Transfer the grilled shrimp to a clean cutting board and let cool to the touch. Cut the shrimp into ½-inch pieces.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, add the mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice, scallions, celery stalk and leaves, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of pepper, and stir to combine. Add the chopped shrimp and stir until well coated. Cover the bowl and transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour, or up to 24.

Step 6

Spread ½ tablespoon of butter on each bun. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Open the buns up and toast them in the skillet until golden brown on both sides. Alternatively, place the buns on a grill over medium high heat until golden brown.

Step 7

Add roughly ½ cup of the shrimp mixture to each toasted bun. Sprinkle each bun with chives and flaky sea salt and serve immediately.
