This colorful, crunchy salad comes together easily with a quick trip down the produce aisle and picking up precooked shrimp. We opted for precooked shrimp to keep the prep time as streamlined as possible, but you can also cook your own shrimp—simply sauté them in a pan with a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink. Just make sure to chill them before mixing them with the remainder of the ingredients because this dish is best served cold. If you prefer a milder dish, substitute a jalapeño pepper for serrano pepper.
