Steps
- Preparation: Prepare the shrimp by peeling and deveining them. Wash thoroughly under cold water.
- Marinate: In a bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for about 20 minutes.
- Cook Shrimp: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and are cooked through.
- Combine Salad: In a large salad bowl, add chopped avocados, diced red onions, sliced cucumbers, and halved cherry tomatoes. Add the cooked shrimp.
- Dressing: Whisk together the remaining lime juice, a dash of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour over the salad and toss gently to combine.
- Serve: Serve the salad immediately, garnished with additional cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
