Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small jar, combine the olive oil, honey, lime zest, lime juice, chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and a pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until well blended.
- Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl and pour approximately 3 tablespoons of the marinade over the shrimp. Toss to ensure all pieces are evenly coated and marinate for 15 to 30 minutes.
- Arrange the butter lettuce on a large platter. Top with the corn, cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, and crumbled queso fresco.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for about 5 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Carefully pour the cooked shrimp and any remaining pan sauce over the salad. Toss gently and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes
Ensure to marinate the shrimp for at least 15 minutes but no longer than 30 minutes. Use fresh ingredients for best results and add the shrimp and dressing just before serving to keep the salad crisp.
