Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, cayenne, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Add the shrimp and coat with the mixture. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Whisk together lemon juice and 4 tablespoons olive oil. Set aside.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a 10-inch cast iron or stainless steel skillet over high heat until shimmering.
Add the shrimp and cook without moving until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes longer.
Transfer to a small bowl and toss with lime juice.
In a large serving bowl, combine the arugula, shallot, pine nuts, avocado, tomatoes and basil.
Add dressing, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.
Serve immediately, topped with shrimp.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc
Shrimp works really well with Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. One wine you could try is Maysaran Arsheen Pinot Gris. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Maysara Arsheen Pinot Gris
A bright expression of fruit right up front, greeting your palate with notes of cut grass on a warm day. The wine is anchored by crisp acidity, but not so much as to overpower a fleeting tease of sweetness that leaves you smiling. Arsheen has a smart, refreshing character that will bestow clarity to a range of preparations of fish, fowl, and pork.
