Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Add shrimp in a single layer. Sear without moving for 90 seconds until edges turn pink.
Step 3
Flip shrimp and cook 60 seconds more until center is opaque. Transfer to a bowl.
Step 4
Whisk lime juice, fish sauce, and sliced chili in the same bowl with the shrimp.
Step 5
Toss in mint, cilantro, and shallot. Let sit 2 minutes so flavors meld.
Step 6
Arrange greens on plates and top with the warm shrimp mixture. Serve immediately.
