Heat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat. In a clean bowl, toss the shrimp with the olive oil, chimayo and garlic salt. Grill the shrimp for about 5-7 minutes total time, flipping with a pair of tongs half way through. Remove the shrimp from the grill when they are opaque and place on top of the salad.

Using the same grill pan or grill: Rub the halved avocado with some olive oil, drizzle on some lemon juice. Sprinkle on some salt and pepper. Grill over medium high heat for about 4-5 minutes until you have grill marks. Slice and place the avocado on top of the salad. Drizzle with some dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste and the rest of the dressing on the side.
