- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 4 tbsp Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)

Step 1
Drain and rinse the hearts of palm. Slice them into 1/2-inch rounds and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and paprika. Sauté the shrimp in the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Add the cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, diced avocado, and red onion to the mixing bowl with the hearts of palm.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the mixing bowl and toss gently to combine.

Add the cooked shrimp to the salad and gently toss again to incorporate.

Sprinkle the chopped parsley and cilantro on top for a fresh, herby finish.
