Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of olive oil. Once shimmering, gently place your fresh or thawed shrimp into the pan. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn opaque and curl up, reaching an internal temperature of 120°F.
  2. While the shrimp cook, grab your chopping board and knife to prep the vegetables. Dice the cucumber and pineapple into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they're uniform for an appealing presentation. Set them aside in separate bowls.
  3. Take a serving dish and start building your masterpiece by spreading a generous layer of guacamole as the base. Next, artfully add the diced cucumber and pineapple on top of the guacamole.
  4. Once the shrimp are perfectly cooked, remove them from the skillet and arrange them on top of the layered fruits in the serving dish. Lightly sprinkle Old Bay seasoning over the shrimp.
  5. Finish off your dish with edible flowers for a pop of color and an elegant touch.
