Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 6 cups Romaine lettuce (chopped)
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 Cucumber (sliced)
- 1 Avocado (sliced)

- 4 slices Bacon (cooked and crumbled)
- 0.5 cup Blue cheese (crumbled)

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, toss the peeled and deveined shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well-coated.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Prepare the salad base by arranging the chopped romaine lettuce evenly onto a large platter or mixing bowl.
Top the lettuce with rows or sections of cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, avocado slices, hard-boiled eggs, crumbled bacon, blue cheese, and red onion.
Add the cooked shrimp on top of the salad, distributing evenly.
Drizzle your favorite dressing over the salad or serve it on the side for individual preferences.
Toss lightly before serving, or leave it arranged for a presentation-style serving.
