Mexican flavours star in this vibrant dish. Cumin-spiced shrimp are pan-seared and served over a colourful bed of squash, red bell pepper and cabbage — all topped with feta cheese. A drizzle of creamy avocado aioli lends the dish herbaceous flavours, while toasted pepitas add a subtle crunch throughout.
