Mince the garlic and finely chop the raw fresh parsley.
In a small glass jar, whisk together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, raw fresh parsley, sea salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Slice the raw cucumber, halve the raw cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the raw red onion, and slice the avocado into wedges.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the raw shrimp to the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink, opaque, and have a slight golden crust.
In a large serving bowl, combine the raw mixed greens, raw cucumber, raw cherry tomatoes, and raw red onion.
Drizzle half of the lemon-herb dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the leaves and vegetables evenly.
Divide the salad onto plates, top with the warm pan-seared shrimp and avocado slices, then drizzle with the remaining dressing and serve immediately.
