How to make Low Carb Baja Shrimp Salad

Cut and wash romaine lettuce. Remove the membranes and seeds of the jalapeno and dice. Dice the cucumber and avocado. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
Heat a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add in 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Once the pan is very hot, add in half of the shrimp and half of the Old Bay seasoning.
Cook until the shrimp are no longer pink. Repeat with the other half of the shrimp. Add more oil if necessary.
Combine the rest of the ingredients to make the dressing and whisk well together.
To assemble the salad, divide the lettuce onto the plates.
Add the cucumbers, avocados and jalapeños in rows.
Top with shrimp and cheese. Drizzle dressing over the top. Serve immediately!
