Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound jumbo raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cups arugula or baby spinach
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 mango, cubed

  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

Instructions

  1. Step: Place the shrimp in a mixing bowl together with the taco seasoning and oil. Stir well to evenly coat.

Notes

Season the shrimp with fajita, blackened, creole, or Cajun seasoning if you don’t have taco seasoning on hand. Like a little spice? Add 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder or cayenne powder to the seasoning. Store any leftover grilled shrimp salad in the fridge for up to 3 days. Do not reheat the shrimp.
