1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined, tail on
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon sliced garlic
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3 cups yellow squash, sliced lengthwise, seeds removed with a spoon, cut in half moons
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3 1/3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons minced shallot
1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
5 tablespoons grapeseed oil (or a neutral oil, canola, etc.)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup grilled summer corn kernels (removed from the cob)
1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed, blanched and sliced in quarters
1/4 cup toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper flakes (if you can't find Aleppo, use espelette pepper or regular black pepper)
2 tablespoons thinly sliced basil (chiffonade)
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat half of a grill to medium-high heat, or around 350 degrees F.

  • Grill the shrimp over direct heat until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side, flipping once.
  • For the lemon vinaigrette: Whisk together the lemon juice, honey, shallots and Dijon in a large bowl. While whisking continuously, slowly drizzle in the grapeseed oil, then the olive oil, until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To assemble the salad: Toss together the squash, corn, snap peas, sunflower seeds, Aleppo, half of the vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper. Taste and check for seasoning, adding more vinaigrette as desired. The salad can be kept cold until ready to serve. Before serving, gently fold in the basil and cilantro.
