Heat a nonstick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and slightly charred. Remove and set aside. 🔥

Prepare the Salad:

In a large bowl, combine mango, bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, greens, cilantro, and avocado. Toss gently. 🥭🥬

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss lightly. Top with the warm chili-lime shrimp. Garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge. 🌿🍋
