Ingredients

  • 1 Lbs Cooked Shrimp Medium or Bay Shrimp
  • 7 Cups Romaine Hearts
  • 1 Cup Canned Corn
  • 2 Avocados
  • 1 Mango
  • ¼ Cup Red Onion Sliced

Citrus Vinaigrette

  • Juice of 1 Orange
  • 2 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Cilantro Chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Pressed or Minced
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Be sure to defrost shrimp ahead of time by placing the frozen shrimp in the refrigerator overnight. You can use a quick defrost method of placing shrimp in a bowl of cool water for 20 minutes.
  • Make the dressing by mixing the juice of one orange, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper together with a whisk. Let dressing sit while building the remainder of the salad.
  • Wash Romaine lettuce, avocados, and mangos well.
  • Chop lettuce into bite sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.
  • Cut mangoes into ½ inch cubes. Cut avocados and red onions into thin slices. Add these items to the salad bowl.
  • Drain the canned corn and add one cup to the salad. You can also use fresh corn. Simply husk corn on the cob and grill on each side for 3-5 minutes. Cut the kernels away from the cob and add them to the salad.
  • Drain away any excess water from the defrosted shrimp and pat dry with a paper towel. Add the shrimp to the salad bowl.
  • Dress the salad with citrus vinaigrette and toss well before serving.
