Ingredients

For the Shrimp

For the Dressing

For the Salad

  • 1 head romaine lettuce chopped about 6 cups
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes halves
  • 2 cups frozen corn thawed
  • ½ red onion sliced
  • 2 Persian cucumbers sliced
  • 1 avocado chopped
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  • In a bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes while preparing the grill. Grill shrimp for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove from grill.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, olive oil, lime juice, honey, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the lettuce, tomatoes, corn, and red onion and toss to combine.
  • When ready to serve, top with grilled shrimp, cucumbers, avocado, and feta, and serve immediately.

Notes

My Top Tip: Don't overcrowd the grill. If the shrimp are packed too close together, they'll steam instead of getting any char. Lay them flat with a little space between each one and work in batches if needed.
Storage: If you're planning on making this salad ahead, I would use store all of the components separately (the dressing, shrimp, and salad ingredients) and assemble it when you're ready to eat. They should last in the fridge for 2-3 days.
