For the shrimp

Notes

Buy peeled and deveined shrimp to speed up the prep time. You can soak the red onions in cold water to remove some of the bite from them. Pat the shrimp dry before using as it can steam instead of sear in the skillet if there’s moisture. To store: Put leftover shrimp salad into an airtight glass container and keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store the dressing separately, so it doesn’t make the salad soggy. To freeze: Freeze cooked shrimp in a freezer-safe bag once the shrimp have reached room temperature. Freeze for up to 3 months.
