🧂 Ingredients

1 In a medium bowl combine shrimp, juice from one lime, black pepper, and garlic
powder. Stir everything together until the shrimp are evenly coated in lime
juice and seasoning.
2 Heat a large saute pan to medium heat, once the pan is hot add the shrimp and
lime juice to the pan. Arrange the shrimp into one even layer in the pan. Allow
the shrimp to cook untouched for 3-4 minutes. Then flip the shrimp and cook on
the other side for another 3-4 minutes. The shrimp is fully cooked when it is a
light pink color and no longer translucent.
3 While the shrimp is cooking dress your salad greens. I like to mix the greens in
the dressing before adding other ingredients. To do this place you greens into a
large bowl, add the dressing. Using tongs toss your greens with the dressing
until the dressing is evenly distributed. Then transfer you greens to the
serving bowl. By dressing your greens before topping with other ingredients you
will use less dressing and each bite with have the same amount of dressing.
4 Top your greens with your diced shallot, sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and
shrimp once they have finished cooking.
