How to Make Shrimp Watermelon And Avocado Salad
- Cook shrimp: In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add 1 lb of shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until pink and opaque. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel and devein the shrimp, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Prep ingredients: Dice 4 cups of watermelon, 1/2 red onion (thinly sliced), 1 ripe avocado (diced), and 1-2 jalapeños (finely minced, to taste). Chop 1/2 cup of fresh cilantro (or mint).
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup fresh lime juice, 2 tablespoons honey, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Combine salad: In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked shrimp, watermelon, red onion, avocado, jalapeño, and cilantro.
- Dress & chill: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve: Serve chilled, alongside a crusty baguette or your favorite bread.
