Instructions
To prepare vinaigrette, drop garlic through food chute with food processor on; process until minced.
Add broth and next 7 ingredients (through black pepper); process until well blended.
To prepare salad, combine 2 tablespoons vinaigrette and shrimp in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes, turning bag occasionally to coat shrimp.
Place potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil; cook 8 minutes.
Add haricots verts to pan; cook 2 additional minutes or until haricots verts are crisp-tender and potatoes are tender.
Drain and rinse with cold water; drain.
Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Set aside.
Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray.
Remove the shrimp from bag, and discard marinade.
Add shrimp to pan. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are done.
Combine potatoes, haricots verts, greens, lettuce, bell pepper, tomatoes, and artichokes in a large bowl.
Add remaining vinaigrette, tossing gently to coat.
Place lettuce mixture on a serving platter. Arrange shrimp and eggs over lettuce mixture; sprinkle with olives and capers.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc
Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Shrimp. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. The Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve
An intense golden color with hints of ocher, the wine has a nose of ripe fruit, quince. In the mouth the attack is both supple and full, with notes of honey and spices. The final perfectly balances sugar and acidity.Pair this wine alongside pan-fried foie gras, grilled or roasted white meats (pork, veal), rabbit, poultry in cream sauce, smoked fish, mushroom dishes such as risotto.
