Instructions

  1. First make your salsa. Hull and chop strawberries and combine with minced onion. Remove stem, seeds, and ribs from jalapeño, mince, then add to your salsa. Add juice of half a lime, a drizzle of evoo or avocado oil, and as much fresh cilantro as you'd like! Toss to combine and season to taste if desired. 
  2. Chop your bell peppers and use a chef's knife to cut the corn kernels from the cob. 
  3. Heat a 3.5 quart Lagostina sauté pan to medium-high heat and sauté veggies in a tiny drizzle of oil or butter until tender.
  4. Transfer veggies to a bowl and deglaze the pan with the juice of half a lime. Add 1 TBSP butter to the pan.
  5. Once butter is bubbling, add your shrimp and spices (paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, pepper) and cook until shrimp are pink and opaque, approx 4-5 minutes. Stirring occasionally for even cooking/coating.
  6. Return your veggies to the pan and garnish the dish with fresh cilantro (as much or as little as you'd like!) and lime wedges.
  7. Serve atop a bed of leafy greens and top with your fresh strawberry salsa. Enjoy!
