Sunny Mediterranean Shrimp Salad

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp Salted Perfection South Beach Select Blend
• 1/2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 4 cups mixed salad greens or arugula
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/2 cucumber, sliced into half-moons
• 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
• 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (for dressing)
• 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

1. Pat those shrimp dry with a paper towel. Moisture is the enemy of a good sear, champion!
2. Toss the shrimp in a bowl with the Salted Perfection South Beach Select Blend until they are fully coated. Get that flavor everywhere!
3. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When it shimmers, it's go time.
4. Add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. Cook for about 2 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque. Do not overcook them; keep them snappy!
5. While the shrimp rest, grab a large bowl. Whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, and Dijon mustard until emulsified. Boom, dressing is done.
6. Toss the greens, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, and red onion with the dressing. Plate it up high and proud.
7. Top the salad with your beautifully seared shrimp and sprinkle the crumbled feta over everything.
8. DUNZO!
