1cup fresh or grilled corn kernels (about two ears)
1/4cupred onion (thinly sliced)
1/3cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
5 -6cupsmixed greens (optional)
For the Lime Vinaigrette:
3 tbsp olive oil
Juice and zest of 1 lime
1 tsp honey or maple syrup
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic (minced)
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Toss shrimp with olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Let marinate for 10–15 minutes.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the shrimp 2–3 minutes per side, until they are pink and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, zest, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning.
In a large salad bowl, combine mixed greens (if using), tomatoes, corn, red onion, avocado, and cilantro. Drizzle with dressing and toss gently to coat.
Arrange grilled shrimp on top. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges, if desired.
Notes
Make Ahead: Shrimp can be grilled and refrigerated up to 24 hours in advance. Assemble salad just before serving.
Add-ons: Add black beans, crumbled cotija cheese, or tortilla strips for extra texture and flavor.
Serving Suggestion: pairs well with watermelon wedges, a side of rice, or a chilled white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc.
Storage: Best eaten fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day without the avocado.
