Steps:
- Preheat the grill over medium-high heat to about 375 degrees F or preheat a large grill pan over medium heat. Clean the grill grates.
- Grill the corn, flipping occasionally, until you see grill marks and the corn turns bright yellow, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, combine the shrimp with the lemon zest, a drizzle of grapeseed oil and a sprinkle each of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Toss together. While the corn is cooling, grill the shrimp until you see grill marks and the shrimp is pink, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Once the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cob and place into a large bowl; discard the cobs. Add the snap peas, chopped mint, radishes, almost all of the scallions (save the rest for garnish), the lemon juice, a drizzle of the olive oil and a sprinkle each of salt and pepper. Toss together and taste for seasoning. Add the feta and shrimp and toss to combine.
- Serve in a large shallow dish and sprinkle with the reserved scallions and mint leaves. Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled.

Steps:
- Soak the skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes.
- Make the marinade: Place olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, garlic, paprika, red pepper flakes, parsley salt, and pepper in a bowl. Give it a whisk until fully combined.
- Place shrimp and marinade in the bowl and toss to coat. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Skewer the shrimp: Thread the shrimp on skewers starting from the thickest part of the shrimp and arranging 5-6 shrimp per skewer. Place on a plate and set aside.
- Grill: Heat the grill to 400 to 450 F degrees. Grill the shrimp skewers on direct heat for 2-3 minutes or as soon as it turns pink along the edges and then flip over and cook for another 2 minutes or until it is lightly charred.
- Transfer the now-cooked shrimp onto a plate. When cool enough to handle, remove the shrimp from the skewers and set aside.
- Fold the husk of each corn back leaf by leaf and tie them with a kitchen twine.
- Brush each ear with oil on all sides and sprinkle them with salt.
- Grill over medium-high heat until lightly charred on all sides, brushing with oil, turning and checking every few minutes. This takes about 10-12 minutes.
- Transfer the now-grilled corn onto a cutting board and let it cool. When cool enough to handle, cut corn kernels from the cobs. Transfer to a bowl and set it aside.
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl and set it aside.
- Place butter lettuce leaves, tomatoes, scallions, corn, and shrimp in a large salad bowl. Top it off with crumbled feta cheese.

Steps:
- In a saucepot bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Add the snap peas and boil 3-5 minutes, until peas are just cooked. Strain the snap peas in a colander in the sink and rinse under cold water until cool. Drain excess water.
- Place the snap peas and all other ingredients except the feta cheese in a large bowl and toss gently with a large mixing spoon or spatula. Add the feta cheese and cover with plastic wrap or place in a Ziploc® Brand Container with Snap 'n Seal Lid and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Chef's Note: While storing whole tomatoes, keep them at room temperature for optimum flavor and texture until ready to use. Tomatoes tend to lose their flavor and develop a mealy texture when stored in the fridge for a long time. Cut tomatoes stored in the fridge should be used promptly.
- *Substitute snow peas or string beans for snap peas, if desired.

- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the corn and shrimp in a grill pan over medium-high heat.

- If you are using frozen shrimp, thaw them before cooking.
- To save time, you can use precooked shrimp.
- To make a vegetarian version of this salad, omit the shrimp and add more vegetables, such as grilled zucchini or bell peppers.
- This salad is a great make-ahead meal. Simply grill the corn and shrimp ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, assemble the salad and toss with the dressing.
