Ingredients

6 servings
  • 1 lb medium shrimp (31-40 Count, peeled and deveined)
  • 1 tsp cajun spice
  • 2 cloves garlic (pressed or grated)
  • Pinch salt
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium romaine lettuce (5-6 cups chopped)
  • 1/2 lb 3 medium Roma tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/2 medium red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 English cucumber (or 3 small, sliced)
  • 2 avocados (peeled, pitted and sliced)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (from 2 freshly cooked cobs)
  • Juice of 1 large lemon (3 Tbsp)
  • 1/2 small bunch of cilantro (1/2 cup finely chopped or parsley)
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp sea salt or 3/4 tsp table salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

Steps

  1. Pat dry shrimp with paper towels and place in a medium bowl. Add 1 tsp cajun spice, 2 pressed garlic cloves, a pinch of salt and stir to combine.

  2. Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbsp butter and once its melted and hot, add shrimp in a single layer. Sauté 2 minutes per side or just until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

  3. Chop, rinse and spin dry 1 medium head of romaine lettuce. You should end up with about 6 cups lettuce. Transfer that to a large mixing bowl. Now add 3 sliced tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, sliced cucumbers, 2 sliced avocados and 1 cup cooked corn.

  4. To make the dressing, start with 3 Tbsp of fresh lemon juice, now finely chop about 1/2 cup of cilantro and stir that in. Add 3 Tbsp of olive oil and extra virgin has the best flavor. Season with 1 tsp salt and a generous pinch of black pepper and stir that together.
