Notes
- To achieve a crispy and succulent texture, make sure not to overcook the shrimp. Cook them until they just turn pink and are cooked through.
- Use fresh juicy tomatoes and cucumbers. They will add a burst of flavor and color to the salad.
- To maintain a nice crunchy texture, toss the ingredients with the dressing just before serving. Avoid making the salad ahead of time, as it may become watery and soggy over time.
