Instructions
For shrimp
Preheat grill pan over medium-high heat.
Butterfly shrimp by slicing almost through lengthwise, but leave shell on shrimp, this will keep the shrimp tender while grilling over such high heat.
Brush shrimps with avocado oil, season with salt and pepper and grill 2 minutes on each side, until shells are hot pink and shrimp is opaque.
Squeeze grilled lemon wedges over shrimp.
For the grilled romaine
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
Lightly brush the cut sides of the romaine with the avocado oil. Place the romaine on the grill cut-side down and cook until grill marks form and the leaves are slightly charred, 1 to 3 minutes. Arrange on a platter cut-side up.
Top the romaine with the grilled shrimp. Sprinkle with the goat cheese crumbles and torn basil.
