Cook the Shrimp: In a pot of boiling salted water, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the cooked shrimp, diced avocados, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and cilantro.
Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss everything together, being careful not to mush the avocados.
Chill and Serve: Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Garnish if Desired: Just before serving, garnish with sliced radishes for an extra crunch and pop of color.
