1. For the dressing: Juice the lemon and chop fresh herbs.

4. Set aside while you prepare the shrimp.

5. For the shrimp: If your shrimp have shells, remove shells, devein, and keep tails on.

6. Peel and slice carrots into 4 inch sticks. Slice celery lengthwise and cut into 4 inch sticks.

7. In a medium bowl, combine arrowroot flour with salt and pepper. Toss the shrimp in the flour mixture to coat evenly.
