Grill the shrimp:

Make the miso dressing:

  1. Add all ingredients into a medium mixing bowl and whisk to thoroughly combine. (Or mix in a blender until smooth and creamy.)

Assemble the salad:

  1. Layer each salad bowl with lettuce leaves or mixed greens, radishes, shredded carrots, radish sprouts, sliced cucumbers, sliced tomatoes, edamame pods, and the grilled miso shrimp.
  2. Top with the miso dressing and garnish with black sesame seeds.

Notes

  • If you don't have a grill pan handy, you can always grill the shrimp on an outside grill.
