How to make 10-minute shrimp with green beans and creamy lemon-dill dip

1. Set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with about 1.25 cm of salted water. Cover the pot and bring the water to a boil.

2. Place the beans in the steamer basket, cover, and steam until just tender, about 3 minutes. Carefully remove the steamer insert from the pot.

3. Transfer the beans to a large colander and run cold water over them, then transfer to a plate.

4. Return the steamer basket to the pot. Season the shrimp with 1/4 tsp salt, then place them in the steamer basket. Cover and steam the shrimp until pink and opaque, about 3 minutes.

5. Transfer the shrimp to the colander and run under cold water until cool to the touch.

6. Meanwhile, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill (if using), mustard, pepper, and 1/2 tsp salt in a medium bowl.

7. Divide the shrimp, beans, romaine leaves, and avocado slices among plates. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over, if desired.

8. Divide the mayonnaise mixture among small bowls and serve alongside.

9. The green beans and shrimp can be steamed, and the sauce can be made 1 day in advance. Chill in separate airtight containers.
