Instructions

Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
Make the dressing, as it doubles as a glaze for the shrimp. Use about ⅓ of the mixture to coat the shrimp.
Arrange shrimp in a single layer along with the sliced onions and mushrooms. If needed, slice the king trumpet mushrooms in half lengthwise to lay flat on the sheet pan for better browning.
Cook for 12-15 minutes or until the shrimp are fully cooked and the mushrooms start to brown. Allow to cool slightly.
Build your salad: add greens to a pair of bowls and top with carrots, bean sprouts, roasted onions and mushrooms and shrimp.
Add the remaining dressing and garnish with sesame seeds for a little extra crunch and flavor. Enjoy!
