Preparation
- If using frozen shrimp, thaw them first. In a pot, bring water to a boil, add the shrimp, and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Drain and let cool.
- Dice the avocados, celery, red onion, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), lemon juice, salt, pepper, and Sriracha (if using). Stir well to create a smooth dressing.
- Add the cooked shrimp, chopped herbs (dill or parsley), and dressing to the bowl with the vegetables. Gently mix until everything is well coated.
- If you’d like to include hard-boiled eggs, chop them and fold them into the salad.
- Check the flavor and add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
Notes
Serve the salad chilled on a bed of lettuce or in a bowl. It pairs well with crusty bread or as a taco filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, best eaten within a day or two to avoid browning of the avocado. Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor, but frozen works just fine. Customize with other vegetables like bell peppers or corn.
