Shrimp and Grilled Chicken Salad with Avocado
Ingredients:
8-10 large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into cubes

1 ripe avocado, sliced

2 cups mixed lettuce (such as romaine, arugula, or spinach)

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

2 tbsp olive oil (for grilling)

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Dressing:

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1-2 tbsp water (to thin the dressing)

Salt and pepper to taste

A dash of garlic powder (optional)

Instructions:
For the Shrimp:

Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium heat. Brush the shrimp with olive oil, season with salt and pepper.

Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Set aside.

For the Grilled Chicken:

Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Toss the chicken cubes in olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Grill the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and char marks form. Set aside to rest before adding to the salad.

For the Salad:

In a large bowl, combine the mixed lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and red onion (if using).

Gently add the grilled chicken cubes, shrimp, and sliced avocado to the salad.

Drizzle the creamy dressing over the top, but don’t fully coat the salad to keep it fresh and light.

For the Dressing:

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add water a teaspoon at a time to reach your desired consistency.

Serving:

Transfer the salad to a white bowl, drizzle with the dressing unevenly, and serve with a silver knife and fork beside the bowl for a casual, laid-back vibe.

The weathered metal mesh table with subtle rust spots and natural daylight will help enhance the authentic, fresh feel of the meal.
