This Mediterranean Style Keto Shrimp and Avocado Salad is a nutritional powerhouse, packed with healthy fats from the avocado and olive oil, high-quality protein from the shrimp, and a plethora of vitamins and minerals from the fresh vegetables and herbs.

Equipment

  • Large pan
  • Large Bowl

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1.5 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 large ripe avocados
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 2 large lemons juiced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, approximately 2-3 minutes on each side. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin. Set the shrimp aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, and roughly chopped cilantro.
  • Cut the avocados into cubes and add them to the bowl. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the avocados to prevent browning.
  • Add the cooled shrimp to the bowl. Squeeze the juice of the remaining lemon over the top, and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss gently to combine, being careful not to mash the avocados.
  • Chill the salad in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

The combination of fresh seafood, ripe avocados, and vibrant herbs embody the essence of Mediterranean fare. The culinary traditions in these regions have long emphasized fresh, nutrient-dense, and flavorful ingredients, and this salad is a perfect representation of that philosophy.

Special Tip

For freshness and added crunch, add some chopped cucumber to this salad. It will not only boost the overall flavor but also enhance the nutrition value of the dish.
