Purchase shrimp that smell fresh like the ocean. Any size shrimp will work. Sometimes the smaller ones have more flavor because they usually come from colder water.

½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
7 teaspoons EV olive oil, divided
1 pound large shrimp (24 count/pound)

6 cups baby arugula (or other lettuce of choice)
1 cup peeled jicama, cut into 2x ¼ inch strips

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon sugar
1 ounce queso fresco, crumbled (or other cheese like Monterrey Jack, grated)
