Step 1
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the 1 lb shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Step 2
In the same pot, blanch the 2 cups broccoli florets in boiling water for 2 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the 0.5 cup mayonnaise, 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce, and 2 tbsp lime juice until smooth.
Step 4
Add the cooked shrimp, broccoli, 1 cup corn, 1 diced red bell pepper, and 1 cup cherry tomatoes to the bowl. Toss gently to coat everything with the dressing.
Step 5
Chill for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve cold, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
Step 6
Optional: add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste before serving.
