Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1 teaspoon honey
½ medium lemon, zested and juiced
2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons blackened seasoning, or to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed
2 medium cucumbers, peeled
2 cups cubed seedless watermelon
1 medium avocado, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 teaspoon black sesame seeds

Steps:

Whisk olive oil, mint, honey, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice together in a small bowl. Set dressing aside.
Lightly dredge shrimp in blackened seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp in batches and cook until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes on each side.
Use a spiralizer to create cucumber "noodles." Divide among 4 bowls. Top each with watermelon, avocado, feta cheese, and shrimp. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
