Step 1
Pat dry the 1 lb shrimp with paper towels and season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1 lemon, remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper to make the dressing.
Step 4
In a large salad bowl, combine the 6 cups mixed greens, 2 diced avocados, and 4 oz crumbled feta. Add the cooled shrimp.
Step 5
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
Step 6
Optional: add chopped fresh herbs like dill or parsley if you have them.
