Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. For salad: Remove rind from watermelon and put fruit in a colander set over a large bowl 5 minutes (to collect the juice). Slice 24 thin pieces of watermelon; set aside. Roughly chop any remaining watermelon and put it back in colander to drip. Zest and juice lemon. Chop enough zest to make 2 tsp. In a large nonreactive (stainless steel or glass) bowl, blend 2 tbsp lemon juice with oil, shallots, and lemon zest. Add 2 tbsp watermelon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add more watermelon juice if dressing is too tart.
  2. For shrimp: Sprinkle shrimp with coriander and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Spray a large nonstick sauté pan with cooking spray. Add shrimp and sauté over medium-high heat until just cooked, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. To serve: Mix watercress and lettuce; toss with dressing. Add watermelon and avocado and toss gently. Divide among 4 plates and top with shrimp. Serve while shrimp are warm.
